Actor Eric Roberts has apologized to his famous sister, Julia Roberts, for comments in which he claimed he was the reason for her success.
In his new memoir Runaway Train: Or, The Story of My Life So Far, Roberts admits that past remarks he made about Julia were foolish.
“Now one of the things I’d like to apologize for in this book is for publicly saying on more than one occasion, ‘If it wasn’t for me, there would be no Julia Roberts,'” Eric writes. “That’s not only unfortunate, but it’s also untrue.”

Veteran actor Eric Roberts has publicly apologized to his famous sister Julia Roberts in his new memoir. Eric previously stated in an interview that he was responsible for Julia’s successful career in Hollywood. However, in his book “Runaway Train: or, The Story of My Life So Far,” Eric acknowledges this wasn’t true.
The 67-year-old actor writes that claiming credit for Julia’s success was “unfortunate and untrue.” He hopes Julia will accept his public apology. Eric reflects on their relationship and how taking pride in her accomplishments became self-centered. In the memoir, Eric describes Julia as very driven. He admits someone likely would have discovered her talent, even without his influence.
While Eric believes encouraging Julia to pursue acting may have inspired her decision, he knows she would have been successful on her own. His career as a young actor in New York City may have shown Julia...

In his new memoir released this past week, Eric Roberts issued a public apology to sister Julia Roberts for his “asinine” comments where he took credit for her Oscar-winning career.
“Now one of the things I’d like to apologize for in this book is for publicly saying on more than one occasion, ‘If it wasn’t for me, there would be no Julia Roberts,’ he wrote in Runaway Train: or, The Story of My Life So Far, released Sept. 17, per People.
The actor, who was Academy Award-nominated for his role in Runaway Train opposite Jon Voight and is currently on Season 33 of Dancing With the Stars, is referencing an infamous Vanity Fair interview in 2018 where he said, “If it wasn’t for me, there would be no Julia Roberts and no Emma Roberts [who is his daughter] as celebrities, as actresses, and I’m very proud of that.”

Eric Roberts is an iconoclast, both in performance and in his personal life. As the older brother of Academy Award winner Julia Roberts, he watched his sister surpass the prominence of his own acting career and has often been vocal about how her rise would not have come without him having laid a path for her to follow. Now, while Julia can stand to be picky about the roles she chooses, in a recently published memoir entitled “Runaway Train: Or, The Story of My Life So Far,” Roberts admitted that his life still exists paycheck-to-paycheck and he often can’t afford to turn a gig down. Even so, he realizes trying to take credit for Julia’s stardom was wrong and is finally atoning for his claims.

Eric Roberts is apologizing to sister Julia Roberts in his new memoir, “Runaway Train,” after he made comments taking credit for her illustrious and Oscar-winning career. As Eric infamously told Vanity Fair in 2018: “If it wasn’t for me, there would be no Julia Roberts and no Emma Roberts as celebrities, as actresses, and I’m very proud of that.”
“And I am so proud that everybody knows I was first, because I was first by a long shot,” he added at the time. “I was first to get Golden Globe and Academy Award nominations, so I’m proud of that.”

When it comes to the film industry, it is safe to say that there is a lot of competition. While most of the time, actors point their competitive nature at people they barely know, sometimes, it can be directly pointed toward someone they are related to. Such has been the case for siblings, Eric Roberts and Julia Roberts, who have not had the easiest time existing in the same space.

At this weekend’s Creative Arts ceremony, FX’s long-running “American Horror Story” series surprised awards pundits when it won its first Emmy Award in seven years. The victory came in the contemporary costumes category for the 12th season, “American Horror Story: Delicate,” which had extra buzz this year because it famously featured Kim Kardashian dressed to kill (literally) as publicist-turned-demon Siobhan Corbyn.
This marks the 17th overall Emmy for “AHS,” with its last win being for the prosthetic makeup in Season 6’s “Roanoke.” See all of the “American Horror Story” Emmy wins through the years in our updated photo gallery below (or click here for direct access). The spooky show has notably garnered four acting wins so far for Jessica Lange (both “AHS: Murder House” and “AHS: Coven”), James Cromwell (“AHS: Asylum”) and Kathy Bates (“AHS: Coven”).

Hollywood star Dakota Johnson returned to the screen taking on the titular role in the superhero film Madame Web. The movie, however, has been widely panned as one of the worst superhero films. It also became notorious not only for its lukewarm reception but also for Johnson’s blunt and disinterested attitude during its promotions.

However, her behavior might not be entirely surprising considering her challenging experience with the Fifty Shades of Grey franchise, a chapter that had a significant impact on her career. And it might also explain why she appeared so unhinged while promoting Madame Web.

Given Sony Pictures' largely dismal track record with Marvel, most fans didn't have particularly high expectations for Madame Web. So, when the movie debuted with 12% on Rotten Tomatoes and earned only $100.3 million at the worldwide box office, it wasn't exactly a shock.
Despite boasting an impressive cast and a director with superhero experience in Sj Clarkson, little to nothing about Madame Web worked and it's now destined to be remembered as one of the worst superhero movies ever made.
Many cast members will rebound and some, unfortunately, will not.
In the case of Isabela Merced, she's quickly moved on from Madame Web thanks to roles in Alien: Romulus, The Last of Us season 2, and Superman. Talking to Josh Horowitz, the actress reflected on her brief Marvel experience.
"I'd say...I feel like every actor I know and admire has that one movie where it's so camp. It's so camp [Laughs]," Merced started.

Hulu’s steamy drama series “Tell Me Lies” is returning this fall and will showcase a toxic new dynamic between recent exes Lucy and Stephen.
In Thursday’s trailer for the new season, which debuts Wednesday, Sept. 4, Lucy Albright (Grace Van Patten) and Stephen DeMarco (Jackson White) reunite at college following their dramatic breakup at the start of summer. Lucy is determined to shake off the drama and focus on school, insisting she’s not even worried about Stephen. In fact, she says she was in some sort of “delusional state last year.”
Upon their return to college, however, Stephen’s taunting doesn’t help her case, as he approaches her with a public apology, admitting he embarrassed her “over and over again.” “I’m sure that made you feel terrible about yourself,” he tells Lucy in the trailer.
“You’re right — I am still mad,” she concedes later on.

Ryan Murphy’s “All’s Fair” has added Sarah Paulson, Niecy Nash-Betts, Teyana Taylor and Naomi Watts to its cast.
Paulson, Nash-Betts and Watts — who have all worked with Murphy before — are also set to executive produce the upcoming Hulu legal ensemble drama series. The actresses join previously announced stars Kim Kardashian and Glenn Close, who will also serve as executive producers.
The news comes weeks after Halle Berry, who was slated to both star in and executive produce “All’s Fair,” exited the project due to scheduling conflicts. None of the new additions will replace Berry’s character and new roles have been written for each actor, according to an individual with knowledge, though no new character descriptions are available at this time.
Kardashian, who recently starred as a high-powered publicist in Murphy’s “American Horror Story: Delicate” opposite Emma Roberts, will lead the series as a divorce lawyer heading up...

Do you remember when Sony’s Madame Web hit theaters earlier this year? It might feel like ages ago, but Sony’s female-led Spider-Man spin-off, intended to kick off a new movie series, struggled both at the box office and with critics. Although it grossed $100 million, it fell short of breaking even. On the bright side, the film found unexpected success on streaming platforms, as we reported earlier.
Streaming success can sometimes breathe new life into a film’s prospects. Given Madame Web’s dedicated fanbase, many are curious if a sequel might be on the horizon. Despite the interest from fans, there have been no updates about a potential follow-up.
According to reports from some of our colleagues on social media, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura seems similarly pessimistic about the prospects of a sequel. His comments suggest that there’s no concrete information about a follow-up being developed, indicating...

Remember when Sony’s Madame Web was in theaters earlier this year? Yeah, it seems like an eternity, but Sony’s female-led Spider-Man spin-off movie, which was supposed to launch a new series of movies, failed bitterly at the box office and among fans. While it did manage to earn $100 million, it wasn’t even enough to break even, but the series did become a streaming hit, as we reported earlier.
Sometimes, streaming success can actually help a movie going forward, and Madame Web does have a solid and devoted fanbase, which is why many people are wondering whether or not a sequel is going to be made. Many fans want it, but nothing’s been happening on that front.
As some of our colleagues on social media report, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura is also not as optimistic, as it seems, as he also has no idea about whether a...
