Jamie Lee Curtis Decries Stephen Colbert Cancellation
Hot off another Emmy nomination for 'The Bear' and looking ahead to her upcoming Disney sequel, 'Freakier Friday,' Oscar-winner Jamie Lee Curtis is set to make her first ever-appearance on 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.' But, she will be among the show's last guests. The series is set to end in 2026, a decision that Curtis now calls 'awful.' 'It's bad,' Curtis told Variety of being interviewed by Colbert. 'I'm excited that I will get to be on his show in about two weeks. I've never been on his show. I really like him. He's smart and funny and a lovely human.'

Ben Stiller wrote on X that CBS was axing 'one of the best shows they have,' while Adam Scott was even more blunt, saying 'This is absolute bullshit and I for one am looking forward to the next 10 months of shows.' Colbert's late night rival Jimmy Kimmel also wrote on an Instagram story, 'Love you, Stephen. Fuck you and all your Sheldons, CBS.' Speaking with NPR, Curtis expanded on her thoughts on the slew of politically-backed cancellations. 'They just cut NPR and, you know, public broadcasting — yes, they're trying to silence people, but that won't work. Won't work. We will just get louder,' she said. For more on 'The Late Show' cancellation, check out IndieWire's reporting and this think piece from our own Ben Travers. Curtis, meanwhile, is enjoying the string of successes in her career. Speaking with Variety about her role in 'The Bear,' she said, 'It's a beautiful show and I'm thrilled to be a part of it. I love it. I'm a fan of the show. I was a fan from the beginning and so I just love the stories they tell and the characters they create.' As for the forthcoming 'Freakier Friday,' out on August 8, she described it as 'a movie for today.' 'It is a happy, nostalgic, funny, sweet, heartfelt, Disney movie right at the end of the summer,' Curtis continued. 'There haven't been a lot of movies for women, and this is a love letter to every mother, grandma, sister, cousin and daughter.'

Plus: You can bring your own snacks without having to sneak them in your purse, and pets are welcome. Yes, but: Tibbs' isn't the only place to watch movies outdoors. Several other venues have gotten in on the fun and set up the occasional outdoor feature. For families: White River State Park is hosting an outdoor movie night Friday, showing Disney/Pixar's "Cars." Gates open at 8pm, and the movie starts at dusk. Lawn chairs and blankets are welcome. Tickets are $5 each or $20 for a family pass. Snacks will be available for purchase.
