Julia Roberts went voiceless after an intense scene in Leave the World Behind, her dedication shines, proving she’s still Hollywood’s powerhouse!
Julia Roberts is no stranger to intense roles, but Leave the World Behind took things up a notch—straight to voicelessness! In one standout scene, Hollywood’s original Pretty Woman pushed herself to the brink, giving such a gut-wrenching performance that she literally couldn’t speak afterwards. Yep, Roberts went all in, pouring every ounce of emotion into her character until her voice just checked out.
For an actor who has spent decades captivating audiences with her charisma and charm, this loss of words was nothing short of monumental. It’s clear that Roberts’ dedication to her craft’s only deepened over the years, and this scene is proof that she’s still got it, even if she’s left speechless in the process.
Julia Roberts Went All Out in Leave the World Behind—And Lost Her Voice to Prove It
Julia Roberts went all in for Netflix’s thriller, Leave the World Behind. In fact, she pushed so hard during one intense scene, she lost her voice! Yeah, you heard that right—Roberts was yelling until she literally couldn’t speak. Now, that’s what you call commitment!
The movie, based on the best-seller, follows two families stuck together when a cyber apocalypse hits. With an all-star lineup—Roberts, Ethan Hawke, Mahershala Ali, and Myha’la—this isn’t your typical vacation drama. Amanda (Roberts) and Clay (Hawke) kick things off with a getaway to Long Island, but it goes sideways fast when G.H. Scott (Ali) and his daughter Ruth (Myha’la) show up, bringing some bad news: the world’s falling apart.
Talking about her on-screen marriage, Roberts said Amanda and Clay fill the void of the other—which is a nice way of saying they’ve got issues. And things only get messier as the tension cranks up. Ali chimed in, saying the movie’s about shedding those first impressions and really seeing people as they are.
But the real chaos? It went down in a scene where Roberts and Myha’la faced off with a shed full of creepy deer heads. Roberts spilled,
The FX had made some deer heads for us to look at, and they had also constructed this giant set of antlers for when Myha’la kind of gets trapped against the shed.
And I remember it was really hot and just screaming for hours until I truly had no voice, and we had to change the next few scenes that we had the next day because I could not talk anymore. I’ve never lost my voice in my life.
Now that’s some next-level intensity. Leave the World Behind isn’t just a survival story; it’s a deep dive into what happens when the world goes off the rails—and Roberts brings the heat!
