According to reports, Eat, Pray, Love star Julia Roberts is in talks to play Snow White’s evil stepmother. The actress has been approached about playing the queen in a project called The Brothers Grimm: Snow White.
The film is going to be produced by X-Men: The Last Stand director Brett Ratner.
Meanwhile, the actress is apparently furious that her brother, actor Eric Roberts, has been talking about their family past on a reality show. Eric revealed on an episode of the VH1 reality show Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew that he was beaten as a youngster.
Julia and her brother were estranged for several years, but managed to sort out their differences when she gave birth to her twins, Phinnaeus and Hazel, in 2004.
“Now she’s fuming at him again,” a source said. “Julia feels that the last place Eric needs to ‘confess’ about their family’s past is on a reality show. As far as she’s concerned, it’s an embarrassment to her and their mother.”
