JULIA ROBERTS

Julia Roberts kept Hollywood abuzz with her notable characters and her famous smile. Her outstanding performances and a trail of good career investments drove her to progress under the radar. She stepped away from the spotlight in 1991, appearing briefly in The Prayer as herself, before returning concentrated and victorious with 1993 hit The Pelican Brief.

Roberts rapidly became one of the world’s highest-paid actors, earning $25 million for a single film. She managed to sustain the production of projects that regularly topped the box office while being in the spotlight for a slew of high-profile and sometimes rocky plotlines. She marked the start of a new page in her career as she dabbled in her TV series, Homecoming, possibly bidding farewell to the genre that made her a superstar. Even though Roberts hasn’t appeared on screen since 2018, we can expect to see her star alongside Sean Penn in the TV series Gaslit in 2021.
