In the 1960 psychological horror thriller by Alfred Hitchcock, Janet Leigh played Marion Crane, who dies after being stabbed to death in the shower.
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Jamie said: "I am actually going as Scarlett Johansson as Janet Leigh in the movie Hitchcock. So it's meta because we never knew what colour Janet Leigh's dress was because it was a black-and-white movie. But now because of the Hitchcock movie, we know it was pale blue."
In Halloween Kills - the twelfth instalment in the franchise - Laurie Strode (Curtis) and the citizens of Haddonfield, fed up with being hunted by Michael Myers, decide to hunt him down instead.

In a recent interview at the Venice Film Festival, the Knives Out actor revealed that she hates horror movies.
"I hate these movies. I loathe them. I do not like to be frightened. So it's a natural talent - that genuine emotional connection to being afraid. You're watching that happen on screen," she said.
Halloween Kills opens in SA cinemas on Friday, 29 October.
