Jessica Chastain was the only one to wear a facemask during the Sunday Oscars ceremony, as many who tuned in to observe.
Jimmy Kimmel, the host of the 95th Annual Academy Awards, posed a question to the Academy Award-winning actress, 45, during a segment as she was watching from the crowd at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.
The late-night talk show host, 55, played a practical prank on Matt Damon, 52, by bringing up their time together on the set of The Martian in 2015, reigniting their fictitious enmity.
Was it challenging to film The Martian with Matt Damon as a co-star because he is illiterate and smells like dog medication?

Although wearing a face mask in public places is no longer mandatory, several social media users were left perplexed as to why Jessica chose to do so.
Twitter users praised Jessica in their droves. Jessica Chastain is sporting a mask at the Oscars, a fan exclaimed. I cherish her.
Another commenter said: “For her commitment to donning a mask, Jessica Chastain deserves a prize. King, you are my queen.

A third individual was even more kind to the Ava star. One of the many reasons I adore Jessica Chastain is her dedication to continuing to wear a mask, they wrote.
Jessica Chastain is the only person wearing a mask; she is just like me [for real] I love her, a home viewer tweeted.
Many speculated that Jessica’s use of a mask served to safeguard the performers in the Broadway production she is presently involved with. Fans believe that the 2022 Best Actress Oscar winner, who is currently performing on Broadway in the revival of the play A Doll’s House, wore the mask out of respect for the other actors and crew.
I absolutely appreciate Jessica Chastain donning a mask at the Oscars tonight, wrote one appreciative fan. She is now performing on Broadway, so I assume that’s why she wants to show appreciation for the A Doll’s House cast, staff, and audience.
She is currently the star of a Broadway production that would have to stop performing if she became unwell, which would have an impact on everyone’s pay. She is making every effort to reduce the likelihood of bringing Covid back to the theater. These are Equity’s regulations. She is acting morally upright.
