New 'Julie & Julia' Movie Still!

New 'Julie & Julia' Movie Still!

Meryl Streep definitely looks the part of superchef Julia Child in this new movie still from the upcoming biopic Julie & Julia, out August 7.

But will she sound the part?

‘Meryl turned into Julia Child and did two sentences in her voice,” recalls director Nora Ephron. ”And I thought to myself, ‘Well, look no further.”’

EW says the movie will be “a mix of the chef’s memoirs and the true-life story of a bored secretary (Amy Adams) who spices up her life by tackling Child‘s recipes.”

Stream cooking segments of the real Julia Child at PBS.org/juliachild.

BTW, check out this recipe. Julia‘s French Onion Soup is sublime.

I got the information of a friend that america was a free country in a way you can use text and so the computer for making statements and give your meaning.
Maybe my language isn’t always as “CLEAN” as it should be but HELL people: THIS IS AMERICA 2009, right?

Meryl Streep is the best actress of our time. She can do anything! I’m going to see Doubt today.

I really believe that Meryl and Amy should do all their movies together. Even though they have no scenes together in Julie/Julia, they were great together in Doubt. Great chemistry.

She will be great. Fantastic actress!

Adore Meryl Streep’s acting and so pleased she’s playing the great Julia Child….I miss her entertaining shows as I started cooking in the 60′s with her cookbook.

aww i used to watch julia child when i was younger! i always thought it was cool because we had the same name. haha i was young :p

great actress and botox free! Meryl showed us that there are a lot of good things left showing your real age and not stuff it with silicon etc

Meryl will win oscar again!!!
i adore her so much!

When the Oscars finally get a category called “best actor or actress for overacting” then my first selection would be Meryl Streep in Mama Mia>
