Jamie Lee Curtis recently confessed she thought Ana de Armas was “inexperienced, unsophisticated young woman” because of her Cuban upbringing.
According to Insider, Jamie opened up about her “assumptions” she had for Ana when they met on the set of whodunit movie Knives Out in October 2018.
“I made an assumption that she was an inexperienced, unsophisticated young woman. That first day, I was like, ‘Oh, what are your dreams?’” revealed the Freaky Friday star in a recent interview with Elle.
She went on to add, “I assumed – and I say this with real embarrassment — because she had come from Cuba that she had just arrived.”
Interestingly, the True Lies actress mentioned that after working with Ana, her perspective changed completely.
While gushing about Ana’s acting, the 63-year-old described her as a “curious soul” who loved to ask “a lot of questions”.
“She is not as fancy as maybe the advertisements would have you believe. She leans in, interested; talking to her is kind of give-and-take,” added Jamie.
