"Things might get super interesting" as Julia Roberts and Sam Esmail tease a 'Mrs. Robot' feature

In a recent interview, 'Homecoming' actress Julia Roberts revealed her interest in playing Mrs Robot.

'Homecoming'  star Julia Roberts may play the character of a caseworker in a mysterious government facility but it looks like she may have her eyes set on another role - that of playing Sam Esmail's Mrs. Robot! In a recent interview with Rotten Tomatoes, the Oscar-winning actress revealed her interest in playing the character. What's more, she even teased that she may just appear in the final season of 'Mr. Robot'. 

During the interview, as Esmail revealed that he's in the middle of filming the final season for the show, she chimed in. "I’m a little tired of hearing about 'Mr. Robot'. Unless there’s a Mrs. Robot out there," she said before adding, "Rami [Malek] and I are very good friends." Malek plays Elliot Alderson, a cybersecurity engineer and hacker in the drama thriller.  Alderson is the protagonist of the series, who suffers from social anxiety disorder and clinical depression. Things begin to get interesting when he gets recruited by a character called Mr. Robot, to join a hijacking cult.
