He Is A Hot Mess During Interviews

[Blind Gossip] This actor comes from a famous acting family.

He is currently doing some publicity for a fantasy film that is being released.

It is not going well.

His radio tour so far has been a hot mess!

He couldn’t seem to answer even the most basic questions about the movie. The hosts were completely dumbfounded.

That’s not good!

It’s obvious that he hadn’t seen the movie or even the trailer. He doesn’t know even the basics of the plot. He was just making things up in the interview.

I know he was given a full briefing about the movie, so I don’t understand how he is so unprepared.

He has battled some drug issues in the past. Is he sober?

I was told that he behaved very professionally on set and knew his lines. Everybody thought that he’d be good to go for promotion.

Obviously he wasn’t. Can you give us an example of something he said during the interview?

At one point he told [the host] that the entire world of [the movie] was CGI-ed around him.

His scenes don’t have any CGI.

Whoops!

Anything else?

He didn’t even remember who the director was. He kept referring to the director  as “he”… even though the director is a woman!

Oh, boy.

Although our actor is not as famous as his sister, he does work all the time, mostly in independent productions. He is so prolific, in fact, that he has hundreds of film and television credits to his name!

Would his famous sister – or his daughter – be shocked if they knew that he had bungled his interviews so badly?

We don’t know. However, we do imagine that his sister would just laugh her big, horsey laugh and revel in her career superiority…

    Eric Roberts
    He is my favorite in the family. He is a great actor who does not get the attention he deserves. I can’t stand Julia or Emma.

    Fave family member? Don’t have one. That’s a trippy family, for sure.

    Eric Roberts
    He’s got about 1 million things coming out this year some with women directors so I have no clue of the movie.

    I enjoy Julia Roberts’ acting.

    Eric Roberts. Of the three, Julia is my favorite since I think both Eric and his daughter Emma are hot messes. Narcissistic Julia has her own issues, though.

    Actor: Eric Roberts
    Daughter: Emma Roberts
    Famous sister: Julia Roberts

    I’m a fan of both Julia and Emma.

    Obviously Eric Roberts
    It’s him, he seems like more down to earth guy.
    There were some rumors about why him and Julia don’t get along and I don’t know if it’s true. But he seems like a nice guy,

    [Optional] Which member of his family is your favorite? Neither his sister nor his daughter

    Clues: sister would just laugh her big, horsey laugh – Julia Roberts

  39. antisocialwonder says

    I might be showing my age but Eric Roberts? Sister is Julia Roberts and his daughter is Emma Roberts.

    Optional: I don’t really like any of them but I’ve seen more Julia Roberts movies with Hook being my favorite. They all seem like pretty horrible people. Emma is nuts. Julia was a homewrecker when she met her husband. Eric plays good villains but isn’t he a hot mess drug wise?

    Actor: Eric Roberts

    I don’t like any of ten. If i HAD to pick i guess Julia… grudgingly lol

  64. Iriish says

    Julia Roberts brother…Eric Roberts.
    Hints are her horse laugh, she’s a billion times more success than he is and even his daughter has surpassed his success. Oh and the similar says ‘a low singer’…like julias A Low Vera shirt.

    I used to like Julia but not so much anymore given what she is like as a woman. Emma Roberts is the only one I like from the family and I hear even she is a little nuts.

  75. ILUVCA4evr says

    Guessing here…Eric Roberts?

    Used to love Julia Roberts..especially her earlier movies. Now, meh.

    Eric Roberts

    I seem to recall Julia being compared to a horse quite often over the years, so I believe that laughing her “big, horsey laugh” refers back to that comparison.

    I’ve only seen her in PW, and haven’t seen Eric or Emma at all, so I guess that as a result, she’s my favorite actor of the 3 of them. Gidde yup!

  88. Jayzzzzzz says

    Eric Roberts. Hope he’s ok.

    Ummmmm, none of them are my favorite – although I’m a big American Horror Story fan, so maybe Emma?

  91. Conchord says

    Well, it sounds like Eric Roberts. But he has so many credits that I can’t identify the movie.

  93. mattaharpy says

    Eric Roberts reprising his role as The Master in BBC’s Doctor Who.
    Superior career horsey laughed sister: Julia Roberts.
    Daughter: Emma.

    Eric Roberts — but if you go to his IMDb page, he literally has dozens and dozens of projects in post-production or filming. I wouldn’t be surprised if he was sober but couldn’t keep them all straight. Give him notes right before his interview.

    Bonus: I don’t really care about Eric or the daughter, and I won’t watch anything Julia is in. Every time I see her I remember the “Low Vera” t-shirt. She’s one of the biggest stars in the world, and she’s harassing her lover’s ex. Trashy.
