Behind the camera
In 2017 Roberts and her friend Karah Preiss started the book club Belletrist, which aims to build a community where women feel confident and empowered and to promote reading. Its first featured book was Joan Didion's South and West.
Behind the camera
Emma Roberts started Belletrist TV, her own production company, and got a first-look television deal with Hulu for book adaptations. She took her first executive producer credit on Carola Lovering's Tell Me Lies, which came out in September 2022.
A role that slipped away
In 2013, Roberts was cast to star in a Fox pilot named Delirium, which drew from the Lauren Oliver novels. She played the protagonist, Lena Haloway, but Fox did not pick up the show, and Hulu later streamed the pilot for a limited time starting June 20, 2014.
A role that slipped away
In 2007, Roberts was expected to work again with Andrew Fleming, who directed Nancy Drew. They had Rodeo Gal and a Nancy Drew sequel planned, but neither film was ever made.
A first
Roberts had her voiceover debut in The Flight Before Christmas, voicing Wilma in the English version. She also appeared in Lymelife, which premiered at the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival.
Beyond film
In 2005, Roberts put out a debut album called Unfabulous and More, which doubled as the soundtrack for the television series Unfabulous that she starred in. Columbia Records and Nick Records released it, and it reached number 46 on Billboard's Heatseekers Albums chart.
