Check Out Julia Roberts & Lily Collins In The Other Snow White ‘Mirror, Mirror’ (VIDEO)

Mirror, Mirror has released it’s first trailer hot on the heels of Snow White & The Huntsman doing the same late last week (watch that trailer here.)

Although both films appear visually stylish with grand sets and costuming, the similarities in how the fable is re-imagined stop there.

Julia Roberts is the deliciously bitchy Wicked Queen, Lily Collins the fair Snow White and Armie Hammer the charming Prince – this film, directed by Tarsem Singh, has a comedic undertone and brightness that separates it from the Kristen Stewart/Charlize Theron version.

Mirror, Mirror is in theaters March 16, 2012.

Take a look at this trailer and tell us – which Snow White movie are you more likely to see? (Read the article)

Julia Roberts At The Premiere Of ‘Fireflies In The Garden’

Julia Roberts

Julia Roberts looked happy but a bit subdued at the U.S. premiere of Fireflies In The Garden.  She wore a simple black dress with a ruffled skirt, and a tuxedo-style blazer to the event.  A fairly fitting look to premiere a serious film about a family struggling with loss and learning how to reconcile with each other.

Never heard of this movie?  You’re not the only one.  The film was originally premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival in 2008, but was just released domestically this week.

Catch the film’s trailer, and more photos of Julia, after the jump.

See Julia Roberts As The Evil Queen In ‘Snow White’ (PHOTOS)

Julia Roberts gets her mean on for the new Snow White movie as the Evil Queen.

In the first pictures of her in full costume, Roberts is in full regal mode with huge costumes, bright colors and the kind of over-indulgence a wicked ruler can bask in.

Director Tarsem Singh (The Cell, Immortals) said he wanted his monarch to be consumed with remaining on the throne.

“She outsources her evil, just like most people,” says Singh. “I wanted a person who is just schizophrenic. She’s a person who would just do all the evil she needs to do to stay in power.”

Roberts costars in this version of Snow White with Lily Collins, Armie Hammer and Nathan Lane. It is due in theaters March 16, 2012.

This is a more family friendly version of the fairy tale, where the competing film Snow White and The Huntsman, starring Kristen Stewart and Chris Hemsworth, will be a darker variation of the beloved story and is due in June of next year.

Julia Roberts & Tom Hanks ‘Larry Crowne’ Premiere

Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks have teamed up for the summer romantic comedy Larry Crowne and both stars hit the red carpet at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles yesterday.

Roberts, 43, chose a menswear inspired dark suit for the movie premiere and had her swept back in an elegant up do. No one does this look as chic as Julia does.

Hanks wife, Rita Wilson donned a black jacket and dress with sequined skirt and she looked fabulous too.

The movie, directed by Hanks and co-written by Nia Vardalos and Tom, reunites the costars of Charlie Wilson’s War for another crack at big screen magic.

The two have a genuine fondness for each other and Roberts even joked with reporters that Hanks tried to off her with a Vespa.

“He almost killed me,” Roberts said. “He almost took one of my legs off – The good leg!”

The two are charming together so I hope this movie is better than the trailers.

Julia Roberts & Tom Hanks Cover W Magazine

Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks cover W magazine for the June issue and talk about how their careers and the roles they’ve chosen have changed as they get older.

Hanks, who made his name off his romantic comedies like Splash, Big, Sleepless in Seattle and You’ve Got Mail wanted to segue into films where his character had more complicated conflicts like The Green Mile, Saving Private Ryan and Cast Away.

“I told my agents that I wasn’t going to play pu***es anymore,” Hanks told the magazine. “I was tired of playing, ‘Oh, boo-hoo–I was in love, but oh, boo-hoo-hoo.’ There comes an age when you can’t do that anymore. I wanted to play men instead of boys. In your mid-30s, it’s time to start playing guys of compromise. And as you get older, men of bitter compromise.”

Roberts has tried to find roles that challenge her as an actress and that she can identify with.

“I think it’s called growing up. Light and funny has a more compelling quality when you’re younger,” she said. “But I haven’t abandoned the genre: I love falling down; I love Lucille Ball. It’s just that a lot of those stories revolve around problems that I can’t convincingly portray at this age.”

For their new film Larry Crowne, people might think on first glance it’s supposed to fall into that romantic comedy genre, but Hanks, who wrote and directed the film, wants people to take away more.

“The movie is about combating cynicism. People are naturally optimistic, but you have to choose to walk away from cynicism,” he explains. “You have to say, I am going to combat cynicism today. I had this idea about a unique guy who loses his job and then, at the end of the movie, realizes that it was the best thing that ever happened to him. He thought he was going to die, but it turned out great!”

Julia Roberts Turns Up At TFF In New York

With her enigmatic smile and casual style, Julia Roberts turned up at the 2011 Tribeca Film Festival in New York City with her sister, Lisa Gillian Roberts, to show the film they executive produced: Jesus Henry Christ.

Along with her sister, Julia’s husband Danny Moder, was the cinematographer.

“It was so great to be working on the same movie with him. He’s so good at what he does. He’s so clear and focused,” Roberts told People magazine.

It’s actually hard to get his attention on the set because he’s really like, ‘No, I’m working.’ But at lunch I will be like, ‘Hi, remember me, your wife?’ ” she said.

But if she decides that acting and producing aren’t enough, her kids have another idea for mom: restauranteur.

Roberts, 43, shared that her children; twins Hazel and Phinneaus, 6, and Henry, 3, think she’s got another career in her future.

“They think that I’m a good cook,” the Eat, Pray, Love actress said. “They actually told me that I should open a restaurant.”

Roberts and Hanks Lay on the Cheese in ‘Larry Crowne’ Trailer

Here’s the trailer for the upcoming romantic comedy Larry Crowne starring Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks.

Ok, so is it just me or does this movie just look like a rehashed repackaged cheesy romantic comedy? Julia Roberts seems bitchy and annoying and Tom Hanks seems like he’s taking a page from Forrest Gump here. I couldn’t have less desire to see this.

Julia Roberts to Play Evil Queen in ‘Snow White’

Julia Roberts is set to play the Queen in the upcoming live action film The Brothers Grimm: Snow White.

Relativity Media has closed a deal with Oscar®-winner Julia Roberts to play the Queen in its upcoming untitled Snow White feature, based on the Brothers Grimm story, directed by Tarsem Singh (Immortals, The Cell).

Pre-production has begun, and principal photography will start in April. The theatrical release date is set for June 29, 2012.

It seems almost like Julia Roberts has been in hiding for a while, I’d almost forgotten what a big star she was. I’m glad she’s taking a role like this, a side of her we’ve never seen before might be just what she needs to have a big comeback.

Did Julia Roberts Get New Boobs? – Photos

Julia Roberts was on  a family vacation in Oahu a few weeks ago where she was seen wearing a bikini and looking fabulous while doing so I might add.  But, there was a bit of a change in her appearance…. Julia was filling out that bikini top a lot more so than ever before.

First Poster for ‘Eat, Pray, Love’ Starring Julia Roberts

I wouldn’t think she’d get any “work” done.  But I suppose it could be true.  Star talked to the experts about the possibility,

“It does look like she had a breast augmentation; they look significantly larger now,” observes Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Stuart A. Linder, who does not treat the actress. “She was probably a 34A or small B, and now she looks more like a nice, full C cup,” Dr.Linder tells Star. “Her breasts have more projection, and she certainly fills in her bathing suit much, much better.”

Others have pointed out that Julia could have simply put on some weight in her boos for her role in Eat Pray Love.  Any female knows that is most likely the case here.

But, I would love to hear your opinion…..drop it below!

First Poster for ‘Eat, Pray, Love’ Starring Julia Roberts

Eat, Pray, Love Poster

Here’s the poster for the upcoming film adaptation of the famous book Eat, Pray, Love starring Julia Roberts.

While trying to get pregnant, a happily married woman realizes her life needs to go in a different direction, and after a painful divorce, she takes off on a round-the-world journey. Based on the memoir by Elizabeth Gilbert.

This isn’t my kinda movie, but it definitely will pull in a crowd. The poster looks almost exactly like the book cover, as you can see.
