"Jamie Lee Curtis' long-standing, ever-increasing career shatters Hollywood's outmoded stereotypes about aging, and it exemplifies what AARP's Movies for Grownups program is all about," AARP CEO Jo Ann Jenkins said. "She soars higher than ever this year, with her last Halloween movie and Everything Everywhere All at Once , which may well earn her her first Oscar nomination at 64 — on top of the Movies for Grownups Career Achievement Award, our highest honor."^[9]^[10]^[11]
