Julia appeared in a modest and straightforward outfit, signifying a notable transformation while shooting poignant scenes for August: Osage County in Bartsville, Oklahoma.
On set, actress Julia Roberts and her co-star Ewan McGregor were engaged in filming their latest project, August: Osage County, on Thursday.
The brunette actress delivered a powerful and emotional performance. In her personal life, Julia, a mother of three with her husband, cinematographer Daniel Moder, opted for a layered look, consisting of a white shirt over a cream top, paired with relaxed blue jeans.
Her long brown hair was styled simply for her role as Barbara Weston, a character in a family dealing with their conflicts following the disappearance of their alcoholic father.
During a particularly intense scene, Ewan grasped Julia’s hand with anticipation as they approached a boat dock to identify a deceased individual alongside the Sheriff.
The Pretty Woman star appeared quite unadorned as she filmed the gripping moment of body identification.
Upon the discovery of the corpse, Julia succumbed to tears, seeking solace in the embrace of Ewan’s character, Bill Fordham, as she continued to weep.
Despite the scene’s emotional gravity, Julia was seen laughing heartily between takes, accompanied by Julianne Nicholson, who appeared to share a lighthearted moment with the group.
In a departure from her typical fashion, she portrayed Barbara Weston by wearing jeans and layered tops.
The actress from Boardwalk Empire also chose a similarly modest outfit, consisting of a blue shirt and brown flared trousers, with her hair styled in a ponytail.
Other prominent cast members in the 2013 film include Benedict Cumberbatch as ‘Little Charles Aiken’ and Meryl Streep as Violet Weston.
As noted on the film’s IMDb page, Renée Zellweger and Andrea Riseborough were initially considered for a role.
Ultimately, Riseborough was cast but had to withdraw due to scheduling conflicts, leading to Juliette Lewis taking over the role of Ka.
