There’s a chance that Jessica Chastain might not be on the red carpet for the 2022 Oscars.

Following The Academy’s plan to move eight categories to an hour prior to the live show and pre-tape and edit in those acceptance speeches into the main broadcast was revealed, Jessica shared that she would be present for the Best Hair and Makeup category – even if that means she’s skipping part or all of the red carpet.

“I will absolutely be present when the makeup category is being called, and if that means I’m not doing press on the red carpet or ABC or whatever it is, then so be it,” Jessica shared on the Next Best Picture podcast.

She added that “the most important thing for me is to honor the incredible artisans who work in our industry.”

“So much attention is on the actors, we’re like the face in some ways, because you go to a movie and you see us. A lot of people don’t understand how beyond an actor a performance is. Look at this incredible makeup team, Tammy Faye goes through three decades.”

Jessica went on, saying that “It’s incredibly important to honor all aspects of cinema beyond just the actors. I will be 100 percent present.”

Jessica, who has become a front runner for that Best Actress prize, was shocked to win both the Critics Choice Award and SAG Award for her role.
