Julia Roberts lands next lead movie role
Julia Roberts has landed her next lead role on the big screen.
Most recently seen contending with the end of civilisation in Leave the World Behind, the iconic actress will team up with Bones and All director Luca Guadagnino for an upcoming thriller titled After the Hunt.
An official logline reveals how a college professor (Roberts) "finds herself at a personal and professional crossroads when a star pupil levels an accusation against one of her colleagues" (via Variety).
As she navigates this tricky situation, "a dark secret from her own past threatens to come to light".
Industry newcomer Nora Garrett is behind the script and will executive produce alongside Karen Lunder for Imagine Entertainment.
After the Hunt joins a pile of tantalising Guadagnino projects, with the Italian filmmaker also set to shoot Separate Rooms with Josh O'Connor this year before finally releasing his Daniel Craig romance drama Queer.
Challengers, starring Zendaya as a tennis coach, is coming to UK cinemas later this month too.
