- Profession: Actress
- Place/Date of Birth: Atlanta, Georga, 28 October 2020
I'm so happy, says Julia - Nov 6 2007
It seems Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts these days wants nothing more than a life of domestic bliss.
"My dream is to be a highly fulfilled and productive stay-at-home mom and wife," she told Vanity Fair magazine.
"The highest high would be growing our food that I then make, and then composting and growing more -- that kind of circle."
Julia, 40, said in the interview that life would involve having "my own creative outlet, even if it's silly needlework and stuff like that."
She and her husband, cinematographer Danny Moder, have two-year-old twins, Hazel and Phinnaeus, and a son, Henry, born in June.
When asked whether she wants more children, Robert said: "No, I don't think so, because at this point I'm having so much fun with them. You only have so much energy and you want to put so much energy into each child... and they're a really good trio, these three."
Julia said marrying Moder in 2002 was the right thing to do.
"It's the most correct decision I've ever made in my life -- not that it was even a decision, because it just overtakes you. My whole body knew: 'Yes.' He's just my favourite guy," she said.
Julia, who won an Oscar for her role in the 2000 drama Erin Brockovich, will next be seen co-starring with Tom Hanks in Charlie Wilson's War due for release Christmas Day next year.
Julia and Clive to team up again? - Nov 2 2007
Julia Roberts and Clive Owen are reportedly set to star in new flick Duplicity.
The Universal Pictures drama has been penned, and will be directed by Tony Gilroy. Jennifer Fox is producing with Laura Bickford, according to Variety.
Julia and Clive have previously starred together in the Mike Nichols-directed Closer, in which they played a married couple struggling to get over infidelity.
In this movie, the duo will apparently play long-time lovers who happen to work as spies on opposite sides. They team up to stage an elaborate con to rip off corporations and steal a valuable product.
The film will begin production in March.
Duplicity will be Gilroy’s second directing effort following Michael Clayton, starring George Clooney. He previously wrote the Bourne Identity trilogy for Universal.
Julia will next be seen in Charlie Wilson’s War, alongside Tom Hanks and Philip Seymour Hoffman. Clive - who took a starring role in Elizabeth: The Golden Age, which recently opened - has just finished shooting the The International, starring Naomi Watts.
Julia Roberts lands top film award - Oct 15 2007
Actress Julia Roberts has been honoured in the US for her contribution to the film industry.
Last year, the star presented the American Cinematheque award to pal George Clooney. This time it was her turn to receive the honour.
Tom Hanks, Natalie Portman and Sally Field watched the smiling star receive her award in Beverly Hills.
Roberts said she came along at the right time to turn into an A-list actress.
"I think I came along at a kinder time in the business," she said.
"It wasn’t about fashion, and there weren’t so many media outlets, it was just kind of different. You could really cultivate your work a little more gently."
Roberts’ portrayal of crusading legal advocate Erin Brockovich, won the actress an Oscar and a Golden Globe.
The actress’ film credits also include Pretty Woman, Steel Magnolias, and Mystic Pizza.
Previous Cinematheque Award recipients include Steven Spielberg, Nicole Kidman, Sean Connery and Al Pacino.
