This success comes after her first Academy Award win this year as Best Supporting Actress in Everything Everywhere All At Once.

“I’ve been an actor since I was 19,” she said . “I just never thought in my life that I would get to do work at this level of depth and complexity. It’s just been the thrill of my creative life these last couple of years.”

Lee Curtis plays the troubled Berzattos matriarch in The Bear, who is prone to meltdowns and lashing out at those around her.
The Bear has concluded its third season, and will return for a fourth.
