    Julia Roberts thinks she has too much "life experience" to star in romcom movies

    The 50-year-old actress - who previously appeared in hits such as 'Pretty Woman' and 'Notting Hill' - has revealed she's unlikely to star in any more romcoms because she cannot convincingly play a naive character


    She said: "There came a point in my career where people thought I had turned on romantic comedies, which I love them, I love to be in them, I love to watch them.

    "But sometimes, they just don't work at a certain point of life experience."

    However, Julia stopped short of saying that her attitude was being driven by her age.

    She told 'Entertainment Tonight': "It's not about age, it's just about what people know that you know."

    Despite this, Julia revealed there's one possible scenario in which she could still star in a romcom.

    She said: "We [could play] the parents of the people that are romcom-ing."

    Meanwhile, Julia recently admitted her kids don't really care about her fame.

    The actress - who has kids Hazel,13, Phinnaeus, 13, and Henry, 11 - explained that they are only interested in how famous she is in relation to Taylor Swift.

    She said: "I don't think they will ever have a true sense of that.

    "I think I told you once when they were starting to figure it out, it was like, 'You're famous?' And I said, 'I think a lot of people might have seen the movie that I'm in or might know who I am.' Maybe an hour goes by. 'Are you more famous than Taylor Swift?'"

    Julia also admitted to being proud of her marriage to Daniel Moder.

    The Hollywood star - who married Daniel in 2002 - shared: "I'm so proud of my marriage.

    "We just celebrated being married for 16 years this Fourth of July, and there's so much happiness wrapped up in what we've found together."
