If you want to see Julia Roberts fall in love with a beautiful movie star in Bali tonight, Javier Bardem and 2010’s Eat Pray Love they are ready, willing and able to scratch that specific itch. If you can wait a year or so, however, Roberts is going back to his roots with the rom-com in front of her Ocean’s Eleven co-star George Clooney at Universal Pictures and Working Title’s Ticket to paradise. Mamma Mia! Here we go again director Ol Parker will lead the project, which he allegedly co-created with Daniel Pipski.
According to Deadline, Roberts and Clooney will star as “a divorced couple who get together and travel to Bali to prevent their daughter from making the same mistake they think they made 25 years ago”, getting married. And if you think these two are not going to rekindle the sparks of true love on the way, then your homework is to put Eat, pray loveand repeat until you understand how romantic movies work.
