Roberts is In the Neighborhood

Julia Robert’s production company Red Om Films is attached to start up a novel adaptation of the soon-to-be published book “In the Neighborhood” by Peter Lovenheim. ”In the Neighborhood” starts with Lovenheim’s realization of a lack of community in his suburban hometown. In an effort to get to know his neighbors better, he asks if he can come to their homes for sleepovers. His goal: to facilitate something more than the feeling of strangers living with strangers in modern suburbia (Variety).

Red Om Films was behind a fair number of projects, the most recent release of theirs being “Kit Kittredge: An American Girl”. Julia Roberts is in the middle of fillming “Eat, Pray, Love” which is a book from author Elizabeth Gilbert based off of her own exploration around the world after a painful divorce. “Eat, Pray, Love” is set to be released sometime around 2010.
