AceShowbiz - Recently, Cate Blanchett and Jamie Lee Curtis have become the talk of Tinseltown. The duo, who star together in Eli Roth's highly anticipated "Borderlands", had everyone buzzing at the special fan screening of the film in Hollywood.
An amusing red carpet moment saw Blanchett experiencing a minor wardrobe malfunction, and Curtis coming to her rescue in the most heartwarming way. The incident underlined the strong bond between the two stars. "Nothing is going on! You know what is going on? I got her back," Curtis said, as Blanchett burst into laughter.
The camaraderie between the two actresses was on full display as they walked the red carpet together, with frequent appearances of playful interaction and genuine affection. Blanchett affirmed Curtis' character, calling her the "den mother" on every movie she makes.
The pair's light-hearted moment has only increased anticipation for "Borderlands". The action comedy, based on a popular video game, follows Blanchett's character, bounty hunter Lilith, as she embarks on a chaotic mission to find the missing daughter of the powerful Atlas.
Beyond the film, the dynamic duo shared another significant moment at the Palm Springs Film Festival Gala. Back in January 2023, Curtis presented Blanchett with the Desert Palm Achievement Award for her performance in "Tar". The pair drove to the event together, engaging in humorous banter about who was the better driver. Curtis even repacked Blanchett's bag, creating a lively debate about evening attire that had everyone in stitches. This hilarious and heartfelt exchange highlighted their genuine friendship.
The Palm Springs Gala was a star-studded affair where Blanchett also had the honor of presenting the Chairman's Award Actress to Viola Davis for her work in "The Woman King". The event also celebrated other Hollywood heavyweights such as Colin Farrell, Austin Butler and the team behind "The Fabelmans", including director Steven Spielberg. Viola Davis delivered a stirring speech emphasizing the need for a more inclusive future for black actors in Hollywood.
The lively camaraderie between Blanchett and Curtis, both on-screen in "Borderlands" and off-screen during awards season, serves as a delightful reminder of the joy and support that friendships bring to the glitz and glamour of Hollywood.
