Just over a month after her first Oscar win for Everything Everywhere All At One, Jamie Lee Curtis is back on the red carpet in support of her godson – Jake Gyllenhaal.
Curtis, 64, who is close friends with Jake’s, 42, parents — director Stephen Gyllenhaal and screenwriter Naomi Foner — hit the red carpet with Jake at the premiere of his new movie Testament.
The Oscar-winning actress was all smiles on the red carpet in support of Gyllenhaal’s new film, which hits theaters April 21.
Curtis stepped out in all black – with a black top under a black suit coat and with silver-rimmed glasses.
The actress accessorized with tiny heart-shaped earrings and a silver choker with a tiny pendant.

She completed her look with black leggings and black pointed-toe pumps for the red carpet look.
Jake Gyllenhaal’s godson rocked a nearly identical look in a black T-shirt under a black suit coat with black pants and black shiny shoes.
Gyllenhaal’s newcomer film follows his character, US Army Sergeant John Kenley, who recruits local Afghans to help interpret the local language.
He brings Ahmed (Dar Salem) to their mission, which leads to an ambush where Kenley’s life is eventually saved by Ahmed.
Back home, Kenley learns that Ahmed has escaped from the Taliban, returning to enemy territory alone to save the man who saved his life.
The film stars Jonny Lee Miller, Alexander Ludwig, Anthony Starr and Emily Beecham, with Guy Ritchie directing.
Gyllenhaal was promoting the 2021 movie The Guilty when he opened up about living with his godmother, Curtis, during the COVID-19 pandemic.
She is just one of the most generous, loving and giving people around. She has been very good to me, and recently during this global pandemic that the world is going through, she accommodated me for a while, in Los Angeles, in her guest house,” Gyllenhaal said.
