With her face stripped of makeup and dressed in a rather dowdy outfit, Julia underwent a significant transformation while filming emotional scenes for *August: Osage County* in Bartlesville, Oklahoma.

**On set:** The talented actress Julia Roberts and her co-star Ewan McGregor were hard at work filming their new movie *August: Osage County* on a busy Thursday afternoon.

In an incredibly hysterical performance, Julia delivered a gripping tearful act that showcased her impressive range. The screen star, who in her personal life is a dedicated mother to three children with her cinematographer husband, Daniel Moder, layered up with a simple white shirt over a cream top, which she paired with loose-fitting blue jeans.

Her long brunette locks were not glamorously styled for this role—she embodied the character of Barbara Weston, a member of a complex family dealing with emotional struggles and conflicts when their alcoholic patriarch mysteriously goes missing.

During an especially intense scene, Ewan held Julia’s hand with great tenderness and anticipation as they walked down to a boat dock to identify a deceased body under the watchful eye of the Sheriff.

**Mumsy appearance:** The *Pretty Woman* actress looked rather dowdy and ordinary as she filmed the heart-wrenching scene, where they had to confront the unimaginable task of identifying a dead body.

Upon seeing the dead body, Julia’s composure broke, and she erupted into tears, seeking comfort in the embrace of Ewan’s character, Bill Fordham, as she continued to sob in his arms, fully embracing the emotional toll of the moment.

Despite the overwhelming nature of the scene, moments later, between takes, Julia was found cracking up with laughter alongside her co-stars, illustrating her ability to shift from emotional intensity to light-heartedness seamlessly.

The actress appeared particularly cheerful while interacting with Julianne Nicholson, who seemed to be pointing out something amusing to the group, bringing smiles amidst the intense storyline.

**Not her usual look:** Julia wore her jeans and layered tops for the part of Barbara Weston, emphasizing the character’s practical and unembellished nature.

Conversely, the *Boardwalk Empire* star, Julianne Nicholson, also opted for a dowdy look, sporting a casual blue shirt paired with brown flared trousers, neatly tying her hair back into a ponytail to fit the character’s understated style.

This ensemble cast of the 2013 film also features remarkable talents like Benedict Cumberbatch, portraying ‘Little Charles Aiken’, and the legendary Meryl Streep, who plays the formidable Violet Weston.

Notably, Chloë Moretz auditioned for the role of Jean Fordham but ultimately lost out to the talented Abigail Breslin, highlighting the competitive nature of the casting process for this acclaimed film.
