Jamie Lee Curtis Trashes Fierce Creatures, Promotes Sender

0:00Hey, it's Corey, with the story with entertainment and celebrity news today, your daily pop culture update. Jamie Lee Curtis recently trashed one of her own movies during a talk at the South by Southwest Festival. The 67-year-old actress called her 1997 film, Fear's Creatures, a total disaster and said the whole cast only did it for the paycheck. That movie was meant to be a follow-up to her breakout hit, a fish called Wanda from 1988. Curtis starred Curtis alongside John Cleese, Kevin Klein, and Michael Palin in a clever crime comedy that became a lasting fan favorite. Fear's Creatures brought back much of the same talented group, but it fell flat. Production hit snags with a weak ending that forced major reshoots, yet the final version still couldn't match the original's charm. Curtis made these blunt comments while promoting her latest project, a thriller called Sender, directed by Russell Goldman. She has no regrets about speaking out on her long career full of ups and downs.

1:00Sender had its world premiere and competition at the festival on March 14, 2026, and it's still waiting on a wide release date, as Curtis keeps booking exciting new roles.
