Ever since she appeared with Richard Gere in Pretty Woman, Julia Roberts has been hailed as one of the brightest stars in cinema. Today Roberts remains a huge draw at the box office and still commands a very high salary.
She was born in’Atlanta, Georgia. Though both mom and dad were experienced actors, Julia grew up hoping to become a vet. That dream lasted until she graduated from high school, when, at 17, she joined her actress sister Lisa in New York to begin a career in acting. In 1986, her older brother Eric convinced a director to cast her in a drama; Blood Red and in 1988 she also appeared in an episode of television’s Crime Story.
That same year, Roberts had a small part in Mystic Pizza, to great acclaim, and was nominated for an Oscar in 1989’s Steel Magnolias. The next year Pretty Woman arrived in theaters and she became a superstar. The film broke box - office records and won a Best Actress Oscar nomination for Roberts.
Two big hits followed Pretty Woman but Roberts had problems in her personal life: a wedding to Kiefer Sutherland was cancelled just days before the event was to take place in 1991. Over the next two years, Roberts would be seen on screen just once, with a brief appearance in The Player (1992).
She married a songwriter, Lyle Lovett, but parted from him in less than two years. In 1996 she was again praised for her appearance with Woody Allen in 1996’s Everyone Says I Love You.
No longer the highest-paid actress in Hollywood, Roberts nonetheless commands an eight-figure salary per picture, and 1997 saw her reclaim a large measure of her former box-office glory; the summer release My Best Friend’s Wedding opened to the highest-ever single weekend ticket sales for a romantic comedy and earned her a Golden Globe nomination; and she shared top billing with famous actor Mel Gibson in the late-summer paranoia thriller Conspiracy Theory. 1998 witnessed Roberts co-starring with fellow Ed Harris in the family drama Stepmom, but she was off to a good start in 1999 with a brace of successful romantic comedies; Notting Hill, in which she gave a fetching performance as a mega-star who falls for an unassuming bookstore owner (Hugh Grant) ; and Runaway Bride with Gere. Her production company, Shoelace, is thriving, and she’s been courted to star in everything from a remake of Alfred Hitchcock’s to Catch a Thief to the based-on-a-true-story Australian outback odyssey From Alice to Ocean. She scored $12 million to star in the remake of George Cukor’s The Women, in which she is set to co-star with actress ber-cutie Meg Ryan, but the project has been slow to develop. Perhaps the added muscle of Roberts and Ryan as co-producers will speed things along. [br] Before she graduated from high school, Julia Roberts wanted to be______.
