The movie roles of the actress who became a Hollywood star after headlining the romantic comedy Pretty Woman - Julia Roberts, have run the complete range through the years, but Roberts never forgot her roots.
In a recent interview with Roberts, the American actress and producer opens up about her upcoming American thriller film - Secret in Their Eyes, and how far Julia Roberts has come since her romantic comedy days.
She won an Oscar for the biographical film Erin Brockovich, and seems to have reserved away from romantic comedy, but Roberts stated recently that she would do more.
Julia Roberts, who was the highest-paid actress globally throughout the 1990s, stated, "Individuals stating, oh, she's in opposition to romantic comedies - but, I'm not. I love them," "I've been fortunate enough to be in some really good ones, so the bar for me is really high."
However, with Julia Roberts' films such as the 1999 American romantic comedy film - Runaway Bride, Pretty Woman (which grossed $464 million worldwide) and the 1999 British romantic comedy film, which was set in Notting Hill, London - Notting Hill -- people can't blame the actress for wanting to get to the top in terms of making romantic comedies. But that's not the reason why Julia Roberts hasn't been doing them.
Julia Roberts explained, "It's hard to find a true original idea of a romantic comedy for a 47-year-old person, that's going to be funny and realistic and relatable." "I'm totally open to it. I would love to read a good romantic comedy."
Even though Julia Roberts has appeared in fewer movies recently, as the actress chose family life over her Hollywood career, Julia Roberts still has had a major outcome on the way business is done. As the actress made her mark when she was the first female actress in Hollywood to be paid $20 million for a motion picture.
