Julia Roberts Debuts Blonde Lob in ‘After the Hunt' Trailer
The lob in question (that's a 'long bob,' FYI) is the in-between haircut that's been reigning supreme in salons for the past few years. Falling just below the shoulders, it's the Goldilocks of hairstyles—short enough to easily maintain and style, but long enough to still play around with waves, curls, or an updo.
Julia's version is styled in stretched curls, softly layered, and tinged with a buttery blonde hue that not only warms up her complexion but also makes for a surprising transformation. See the star's hairstyle—that's worlds apart from her signature style, may I add—in the trailer below.
The dramatic hair switch-up comes to us via her upcoming role in After the Hunt, a psychological thriller slated to hit screens later this year. So, while we're used to seeing Julia's iconic red hair blowing in the wind (Pretty Woman, anyone?), this sleek, polished lob signals a bold new character.
From rom-com royalty to thriller queen, with every hairstyle, Julia's proving that she can do it all. But we already knew that anyway, right?

'2 Dope Queens' Is on The 100 Best Podcasts of All Time
Comedy and Fiction For nearly three years in the late-2010s, BFF comedians Phoebe Robinson and Jessica Williams hosted 2 Dope Queens, the Webby Award-winning comedy podcast produced by WNYC Studios that tackled subjects like race, gender, and sex in hilarious ways. The unfiltered conversations the pair would have alongside guests, who ranged from comedian Michelle Buteau to former First Lady Michelle Obama, would focus, often very loosely, on a running topic like 'Hair' or 'Fifty Shades of Matthew McConaughey' or 'Hot Peen,' the title of a 2018 episode featuring Tituss Burgess in which they chatted about the men they lust after. The goal of the podcast, which grew out of their weekly live comedy show, was not only to make these thorny subjects feel less taboo, it was also to pass the mic to comedians and storytellers from marginalized groups—women, people of color, the LGBTQ+ community—who did not often get the chance to appear on the late-night shows hosted by straight white men. 2 Dope Queens ' commitment to helping others feel heard resonated with listeners, who turned it into one of the most popular and critically acclaimed shows of its time, spawning a series of HBO live specials, many of which were directed by frequent guest and bad advice giver Tig Notaro. By the time Robinson and Williams ended 2 Dope Queens in 2018, they had broken the podcast landscape wide open, giving way to an entire genre of shows that blend comedy, social commentary, and female friendship. Extremely dope.

I was hankering and hankering and hankering and hankering to see where Rebecca had gone, where she was going to. She's my girl. She's in my bloodstream, so I'm thrilled that it's been exhumed.' She continued, 'I can't wait to get involved with that and put my penneth in and go shopping for her looks.'

'Sense and Sensibility': What We Know So Far About the New Adaptation Starring Daisy Edgar-Jones
Good news has arrived for Jane Austen fans. The author's classic novel, Sense and Sensibility, is returning to the big screen. (The book was previously made into the Oscar-winning 1995 film starring Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet.) Here's everything we know about the remake. Sense and Sensibility follows the three Dashwood sisters and their mother, now a widow, in 18th-century England. The family is forced to leave their lavish Sussex family estate and move in with a distant relative who lives in a quaint cottage. There, the two eldest sisters, Elinor and Marianne, begin contrasting journeys of love and loss. Daisy Edgar-Jones is set to lead the film. She'll play Elinor Dashwood, the eldest sister of the three siblings. In her ELLE US cover story, Edgar-Jones spoke about the importance of playing layered characters. 'It's great that more and more stories are being made with women front and centre,' she said. 'It's also an interesting thing, being a woman in your 20s, wanting to find characters who are not always ingenues. You want to find characters with agency. I want every character I play to be complicated and deep and have layers to them, because that's what it is to be human. I feel lucky that a lot of the characters I've played have had that. They aren't defined by their actions or their experiences, or by the men in their life.' Edgar-Jones celebrated the Sense and Sensibility news on Instagram in a photo posted today that shows her holding the book. She wrote a simple caption, '👀.' On July 11, Deadline reported that Esmé Creed-Miles (Hanna) has been cast as Marianne Dashwood, Elinor's emotional and impulsive sister. Miles shared an Instagram post celebrating the big news with shots of the book and her script side-by-side with Edgar Jones's. On July 21, Variety reported that Caitríona Balfe (Outlander), George MacKay (1917), Fiona Shaw (Killing Eve), Frank Dillane (Fear the Walking Dead), Herbert Nordrum (The Worst Person in the World), and Bodhi Rae Breathnach (So Awkward Academy) have joined the cast. Balfe will play Mrs. Dashwood, Elinor and Marianne's mother; MacKay will play Edward Ferrars, Elinor's love interest; Shaw will play Mrs. Jennings, the woman whom the sisters stay with in London; Dillane will play John Willoughby, Marianne's first love interest; Nordrum will play Colonel Brandon; Marianne's other love interest; and Rae Breathnach will play Margaret, Elinor and Marianne's younger sister. The Sense and Sensibility remake will be brought to you by Focus Features and Working Title Films. Georgia Oakley (Blue Jean) will direct, and the bestselling author Diana Reid (Love & Virtue) will write the screenplay. Yes! According to Reid, the film was set to start shooting in July 2025, and it has. Filming has officially commenced in the United Kingdom. Not yet, though according to Focus Features, 'it's coming soon.' This story will be updated. ELLE Collective is a new community of fashion, beauty and culture lovers.
