Eric Roberts on His Famous Family: No Work at the Dinner Table
Oscar and three-time Golden Globe nominee Eric Roberts says his showbiz family never discusses work at the dinner table. The actor joins Cheddar to discuss his latest project, "No Solicitors." Sister to Julia Roberts and father to Emma Roberts, the star says he'd love to work with his daughter one day, but she's been too busy.
Roberts reveals how the film industry has changed over his four-decade career. He says there are no small movies anymore, just movies with enough money to look like big movies. As Hollywood production schedules get tighter, the actor says it's imperative to leave vanities at home as there is, "no time for it anymore."
Roberts calls his latest project an old-school campy horror film. He explains why he considers fear to be the horror movie's central theme. While he won't reveal whether he's the killer, Roberts assures us "No Solicitors" is frightening.
