Julia Roberts, Colin Firth head to Toronto film festival
With slightly more than one month left to go, we're getting a good idea of the big names slated to hit this year's Toronto film festival.
It's always a very fun and very star-studded week. The actor with what appear to be the most films this year is Benedict Cumberbatch.
The fun runs Sept. 5-15, and here's a few of the most high-profile films set to screen there:
The Fifth Estate, about WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange (starring Cumberbatch).
Prisoners, which has a dad trying to find his missing daughter (starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Hugh Jackman, Melissa Leo, Paul Dano, Maria Bello, and Viola Davis).
Gravity, the sci-fi thriller directed by Alfonso Cuaron that leaves two people alone in space (starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney).
August: Osage County, about the most twisted family you've seen in years (starring Meryl Streep, Julia
Roberts, Ewan McGregor, Cumberbatch, Abigail Breslin, Sam Shepard and Chris Cooper).
Life of Crime, a thriller based on Elmore Leonard's The Switch (starring Jennifer Aniston, Isla Fisher, Will Forte, and Mark Boone Jr.).
12 Years a Slave, about a free man sold into slavery (starring Cumberbatch, Paul Dano, Sarah Paulson, Brad Pitt, Michael Kenneth Williams and Alfre Woodard).
The Railway Man, about a tortured prisoner of war at a Japanese labor camp during World War II (starring Colin Firth, Emily Blunt).
