Not her usual look: Julia Roberts, known for her glamour, adopted a more subdued appearance for her role as Barbara Weston in August: Osage County. Filmed in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, she appeared in jeans, layered tops, and modest outfits like a blue shirt and brown flared trousers, with her hair tied back in a ponytail.

The 2013 film also featured stars like Benedict Cumberbatch as Little Charles Aiken and Meryl Streep as Violet Weston. Initially, Renée Zellweger and Andrea Riseborough were considered for roles, though Riseborough dropped out due to scheduling conflicts, and Juliette Lewis took on the role of Karen Weston. Chloë Moretz auditioned for the role of Jean Fordham, which eventually went to Abigail Breslin. Stripped of her usual glam, Julia Roberts delivered emotional depth, bringing raw intensity to the character.
