Chiwetel Ejiofor Comforts Crying Julia Roberts During 'The Secret in Their Eyes' Filming

Julia Roberts looks distraught sitting next to co-star Chiwetel Ejiofor while they film a scene for their upcoming movie The Secret in Their Eyes on Tuesday (February 17) in Los Angeles.

The pair was joined on set by Nicole Kidman who was seen heading to her makeup trailer with a script in hand.

The remake of the 2009 Argentinian thriller follows a retired legal counselor who writes a novel hoping to find closure for one of his past unresolved homicide cases and for his unreciprocated love with his superior – both of which still haunt him decades later.

This role was reportedly rewritten for a female specifically so Julia could play the lead.
