Angela Bassett seemingly made a hilariously meta quip about her 2023 best supporting actress Oscars loss during the ‘9-1-1’ season 7 premiere
Angela Bassett seemingly used the 9-1-1 season 7 premiere to side-eye her 2023 Oscars loss.During the Thursday, March 14, premiere of the ABC series, Bassett, 65, opens the episode attending therapy ahead of her character, Athena Grant, and husband Bobby Nash’s cruise ship honeymoon. After expressing her “dread” over spending multiple weeks on a boat, she explains that her trauma stems from a movie she watched with her parents as a little girl.
“Did she win?” the therapist asks Athena, who takes a long, labored beat and frowns before replying, “No. She did not.” “I thought I handled it very well, also. And that was my intention, to handle it very well,” she said during an interview earlier this month. “It was, of course, a supreme disappointment, and disappointment is human. So I thought, yes, I was disappointed, and I handled it like a human being.
While the Oscar reference on Monday’s episode was likely a light-hearted meta quip to Bassett’s illustrious and ongoing film career — she’s now a two-time Oscars nominee. Her focus is currently on the small screen with 9-1-1’s season 7 return; it’s first on ABC after being canceled by Fox.
