Could anyone blame Julia Roberts for not being in a rom-com? Honestly, that genre has been on life support for so many years. A lot of them are shit. I do hope she gets something good to do and maybe do a project with her brother Eric.
I have always thought Julia is the sort of star who could have 2 Oscars if the right role came along.
I bloody love Julia Roberts - would have had her second in the BA Line uo for August Osage County - her performance in that movie was the best in show and blew me away.
I really linked Rachel Zegler's answers on Ansel - why can't more people think like that? Why should she have to answer for his behaviour? Articulate and thoughtful I thought.
Had the joy and privilege of seeing Take Me Out when it was in previews and it was absolutely incredible. Great acting from the whole cast! Loved Jesse Williams, but best in show was either Jesse Tyler Ferguson or Patrick J Adams. I’d personally love to see multiple Tony nominations for the show. Also, yes Jesse Williams nude scene is very intense.
