Jamie Lee Curtis helped her co-star and friend Cate Blanchett dodge a red carpet catastrophe this week as they promoted their new movie, “Borderlands.”
True to form, the actors opted for stunning ensembles as they appeared at a fan event in Los Angeles. Blanchett wore a striking metallic top by Swedish brand Hodakova that was constructed out of 102 antique spoons, while Curtis opted for a red blazer and trousers.
As the two women posed for photos, however, they appeared to be standing unusually close to one another.
According to Entertainment Tonight, Curtis was helping Blanchett conceal what appeared to be a rip in her pants.
Both women appeared to be in good spirits, with Curtis playfully shutting down the ET reporter’s inquiry.
“Nothing is going on,” she quipped. “You know what is going on? I got her back.”
As Blanchett pointed out, however, Curtis’ on-the-fly assistance was indicative of the overall support the “Halloween” actor provides to her co-stars.
“On every single movie that Jamie makes, she is a den mother,” she said.
Due out Friday, “Borderlands” is based on the popular video game series of the same name. It follows Lilith (played by Blanchett), a hard-boiled bounty hunter who calls in a trio of treasure seekers (Kevin Hart, Jack Black and Florian Munteanu) to help her rescue an arms dealer’s missing daughter (Ariana Greenblatt).
Speaking to USA Today, Blanchett said she found the game to be “quite addictive,” and said she was impressed that it featured so many strong female characters.
“I mean, it’s not ‘The Grapes of Wrath.’ It’s not ‘Blade Runner.’ It’s its own strange, weird thing, and when you look at the casting, there’s a motley quality to it,” she explained. “We’re a very motley crew, in life and in art. I don’t think anyone would call ‘Borderlands’ art, but it’s fun.”
