Julia Roberts Says She Wants to Return to Broadway in Easier Role

Julia Roberts, who made her Broadway debut in a limited run of Three Days Of Rain isn't done with the theatre world yet.

She tells Allure magazine in a new interview "I would like to do it one more time, understanding the shape of the beast better now."

Her new plan for success, in response to the negative reviews that her first stage appearance garnered? "Maybe not pick the hardest play I can find."

Julia Roberts shot to fame during the early 1990s after starring in the romantic comedy Pretty Woman opposite Richard Gere. Since then, Roberts has gone on to become the highest-paid actress in the world with an asking price of over 20 million dollars. Her impressive film career has also given her the title of most bankable actress in Hollywood, with box office receipts well over two billion dollars on the strength of numerous blockbusters. She won the Best Actress Academy Award in 2000 for her critically praised turn as the title character in Erin Brockovich after two previous nominations during the 1990s. Her many film roles include Steel Magnolias, Pretty Woman, Sleeping with the Enemy, Hook, The Pelican Brief, My Best Friend's Wedding, Notting Hill, Conspiracy Theory, Runaway Bride, Ocean's Eleven, America's Sweethearts, Close and Ocean's Twelve.
