Wearing the same buttoned and belted light blue
dress and a blond wig, Lee Curtis completed the look with a
bloodied shower curtain over one arm.
The actor is no stranger to fancy dress, having turned up as an
orc to the "Warcraft" premiere in 2016.
Lee Curtis returns as Laurie Strode in the latest edition of the
horror series to once again face off against her brutal
knife-wielding nemesis Michael Myers.
"It's an allegory for a lot of things," Lee Curtis said on
Tuesday, when asked to describe the latest "Halloween" film.
"It's very much a story of our times. It's about people not
listening, it's a little bit about misinformation, it's a lot
about rage and trauma, rage and trauma colliding."
Lee Curtis broke into Hollywood with her role of Strode in the
1978 original version of "Halloween". She's since returned in
one form or another for five more "Halloween" movies.
"I don't understand why people love escapist scares and yet it's
given me my entire creative life," Lee Curtis said.
"I don't try to psychoanalyze what that means. I just know that
people like it and we like to deliver it and it's sort of been
the great privilege of my many, many years in show-off
business."
"Halloween Kills" will be released both in theaters and on
Universal's streaming platform Peacock on Oct. 15.
