EW has a first look at Meryl Streep who will play legendary chef Julia Child in the upcoming biopic “Julie & Julia,” due August 7.
”Meryl turned into Julia Child and did two sentences in her voice,” said director Nora Ephron. ”And I thought to myself, ‘Well, look no further.’ ”
Normally we might not be that interested, but “Doubt” reminded us all over again just how amazing Streep can be when she’s working with great material, plus is re-teams her with Amy Adams. The film is a mix of the chef’s memoirs and the true-life story of a bored secretary (Adams) who spices up her life by tackling Child’s recipes.
PS, really learning how to cook is a goal for 2009, we’re sick of the same bullshit meals.
