Hit in the making! Julia Roberts and Meryl Streep are reportedly in negotiations to star together in the film adaptation of the Tony-winning play "August: Osage County".

According to Deadline, "Streep will play Violet, the drug-addicted matriarch of the working class Weston clan and Roberts will play Barbara Fordham, the oldest daughter in the family. That sounds very interesting, especially since both ladies are amazing actresses!"

John Wells will direct the movie and production will start by next summer.
