Julia Roberts Will Eat, Pray, And Love

By Josh Tyler: 2006-10-11 00:00:00
Julia Roberts Will Eat, Pray, And Love Paramount Pictures has snatched up the screen rights to another book, this time Elizabeth Gilbert's "Eat, Pray, Love". Ryan Murphy has already been hired to adapt and direct it as a star vehicle for Julia Roberts, according to Variety.

The book is romantic fiction mixed with the memoirs of its author spending a year equally among three different countries: Italy, India, and Bali. It's a journey of self-discovery and a lot of emotional mumbo jumbo. It'll play like gangbusters to the same audience that went gaga for Under the Tuscan Sun.

Julia could use the work, since she hasn't showed up in anything since 2004's Ocean's Twelve. She's doing some voice acting in movies like The Ant Bully and Charlotte's Web, but this and the 2008 movie Charlie Wilson's War are the only upcoming movies where she'll actually show her mug.

    On every website that announces the making of this film there is really no one who wants Julia Roberts to play this role. It is, to me, a foreshadowing of the film's success. Will it succeed? Undoubtedly. But I think that many people will leave the theater wishing that Cate Blanchett or simply SOMEONE else would have gotten the role. It may significantly affect video sales.

    Whatever they do, I am hoping that they don't spoil the book in any way. Anyone interested remotely in the film should definitely read the book first. My greatest fear is that it will gloss over important insights and become a cheesy romantic comedy. Although Julia Roberts is wonderful, I think they could have made a choice that would have decreased the risk of falling directly into the romantic comdedy trap. Maybe Renee Zellweger...?

    Please NOT Julia, is there a website or somewhere to get it changed? Minnie Driver (although not blond) would be perfect or kate Winslet

    Be aware that the book is not "romantic fiction" as described above, but is a biographical account of one year in the authors life.

    I think Hope Davis would be good for the part. Just a vote. I know Julia is already official.

    Yes Hollywood, please spare us another edition of Julia; if anybody could ruin it, she could. Kate Winslett would be great or even Minnie Driver but maybe even better than either, Jodie Foster.

    A much more likely person to play Elizabeth is Keyra Sedgwick, a wonderful actress and not just a big smile.
