As Godmother, Roberts will present the award to both a male and female young actor on the rise. She follows Godmother Jessica Chastain, who presented the award to Jessie Buckley and Kingsley Ben-Adir at Cannes Film Festival 2021.
Roberts is known for her roles in “Pretty Woman” , “Erin Brockovich” , “Steel Magnolias” and a long list of other iconic films, including many romantic comedies in the ’90s and early 2000s. This year, she can be seen in the Starz series “Gaslit,” playing the role of Watergate whistleblower Martha Mitchell. After stepping away from the rom-com scene, Roberts is returning in October with “Ticket to Paradise,” starring alongside George Clooney.
“For a fan of cinema like myself, Julia Roberts represents a film legend,” Scheufele said. “Her energy and talent have made an indelible imprint on successive generations and it is an honor that she has agreed to symbolically impart the experience of her rich career to the two winners of the 2022 Trophée Chopard.”
