Jamie Lee Curtis didn’t know she was about to take on three more “Halloween” movies when she said yes to David Gordon Green’s 2018 film, the sequel to her 1978 film.

During a SXSW panel titled, “If Not Now, When, if Not Me, Who? Pivoting and Manifesting,” Curtis opened up about filmmaking and her career as an actress and producer. She first named her appreciation for Jason Blum.

“The only reason I am sitting in this chair today is because of Jason. Jason Blum, who runs Blumhouse, is the one who brought back the ‘Halloween’ movies,” she said. However, when she got the call, she thought it was one movie and didn’t hear until way later that they were planning to do more..

She went on to attack Blumhouse as notoriously cheap staing it was their model of horror movie productions..
