Jamie Lee Curtis was asked to audition for ‘The Exorcist’

LOS ANGELES, Sept 28: Veteran actor Jamie Lee Curtis has revealed she was asked by the makers of 1973 horror film “The Exorcist” to audition for the central part of Regan MacNeil.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the producer of the William Friedkin-directed film had approached Curtis’ mother, “Psycho” actor Janet Leigh, to let her audition for the role.
