LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Jamie Lee Curtis is all set to release her graphic novel ‘Mother Nature’ next month and the Oscar winner is excited to share it with the world. The novel takes you on a journey which follows ecological activist Nova Terrell. According to its synopsis, “[She] wages a campaign of sabotage and vandalism” on oil giant Cobalt Corporation after witnessing her engineer father die in mysterious circumstances at one of the facilities.”

It mentions, “She accidentally makes a terrifying discovery about the true nature of the company’s clean water project called ‘Mother Nature’ and how it ‘threatens to destroy’ the entire town of Catch Creek, New Mexico.

Who inspired Jamie Lee Curtis' 'Mother Nature' novel?

Jamie Lee Curtis, who is a celebrated actress, decided to take on writing after her filmmaker husband Christopher Guest encouraged her. “‘I came home and I said to my husband, 'I should hire somebody to write Mother Nature.' He said to me, as Christopher does, very quietly: 'Why don’t you?'” the 64-year-old recalled. “I said, 'Oh please, I don’t know how to write a screenplay,'” referring to the fact that she first thought of writing the story in the form of a script. “He looked at me, and he said, ‘Yes, you do.’”

The ‘Freaky Friday’ star was at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday, July 21, where she said that the idea had been incubating in her since she was 19. “When I could barely get out of high school with my 840 combined SAT scores, I knew that we were in trouble. I knew from an environmental standpoint. If I have any skill at all, it’s that I am emotional. My antennae are incredibly attuned, and I knew it,” Curtis told. “I had this idea for a story, a movie, something in my head called Mother Nature. Of course, I had some gruesome deaths because I have a very dark mind. When you see a few of them, you’ll understand. But I didn’t do anything with it.”

'We may well make this into a movie at some point'

Curtis also gives credit to John Carpenter’s horror film 'Halloween' (1978). “When I made the 'Halloween' movie later in life, which you guys supported, I came back from that energized. I had my mojo back for the possibility of how to tell this story,” reports People.

The actress may turn this into a flick in future, “We may well make this into a movie at some point. That would be fun. Maybe I’ll direct it, maybe I’ll co-direct it, maybe I’ll be in it, and maybe I’ll do all of it.”
