Jamie Lee Curtis thought she’d be a cop, not follow family’s acting footsteps: 'I believe in law and order'
foxnews.comDespite coming from a Hollywood family, Jamie Lee Curtis says she almost chose a very different career path. In an interview with Extra during the Oscar Nominee Luncheon, the "Everything Everywhere All at Once" star and best supporting actress nominee said, "I never thought I would be an actor, let alone get the opportunities I’ve had." "I thought I would be a cop.
I thought I would be a police officer, a corrections officer. I thought maybe I'd be a social worker. I'm good with people. I believe in law and order.
I thought that that would be my path." She added, "Instead, it took me here." Curtis is the daughter of Hollywood icons Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh.
Tony was nominated for best actor alongside Sidney Poitier for their roles in "The Defiant Ones," and is known for his other roles in films like "Spartacus" and "Some Like It Hot." Janet is best known for her role as Marion Crane in Alfred Hitchcock’s "Psycho," which earned her the best supporting actress Oscar nomination.
