With the SAG-AFTRA strike officially over after more than one hundred days, actors are celebrating their return to sets and red carpets, and Julia Roberts is the latest.

The actors' strike first went into effect in July, and during that time, the over 100,000 actors the union represents were barred from doing any sort of promotional work for their projects – from premieres to social media posts – or partake in any sort of acting job.

Now, the strike having ended earlier this month, the Pretty Woman actress gets to update fans on her latest project, and she did so with a radiant selfie.

Over the weekend, Julia took to Instagram and shared a filter-free selfie where she is glowing, wearing a black, cap-sleeve blouse and her signature red hair looks fiery styled in perfectly tousled waves.

Getting straight to the point, the Hollywood A-Lister shared in her caption that her upcoming film, a psychological thriller-drama titled Leave the World Behind, finally hits theaters next week on November 22.

"Eat pie and then go watch a movie," Julia suggested, seeing as the film premieres the day before Thanksgiving in the US.

Per IMDb, the plot reads: "A family's getaway to a luxurious rental home takes an ominous turn when a cyberattack knocks out their devices, and two strangers appear at their door."
