```html Julia Roberts Re-Wears Dress for a Cause at ‘After the Hunt’ Premiere, Addresses Taylor Swift Fandom

Julia Roberts made a striking statement at the Los Angeles premiere of Amazon MGM Studios' "After the Hunt" on Saturday night, not only for her performance in the film, but also for her conscious choice of attire. The Oscar-winning actress re-wore a vibrant pink Greta Constantine dress previously seen at the "Ticket to Paradise" premiere three years prior. Roberts explained the decision was a tribute to Breast Cancer Awareness Month, observed annually in October, and in honor of a close friend who is a breast cancer survivor.

The premiere, held at the Academy Museum, served as another stop on Roberts' extensive press tour for "After the Hunt," which debuted in August at the 82nd Venice International Film Festival. Amidst the promotional whirlwind, Roberts humorously admitted to being behind on her listening schedule, specifically referencing Taylor Swift’s highly anticipated new album, “The Life of a Showgirl.”

Fashion with a Purpose

Roberts’ choice to re-wear the dress aligns with a growing trend in Hollywood, where celebrities are increasingly using their platform to promote sustainable fashion and conscious consumerism. "Re-wearing outfits sends a powerful message," says celebrity stylist, Jeanne Yang. "It normalizes the idea that clothing can be worn more than once and encourages a shift away from the fast-fashion mentality that has dominated the industry for so long."

Swiftie Status Maintained

Despite her busy schedule, Roberts reaffirmed her admiration for Taylor Swift. "She's just amazing," Roberts stated. "She's just a lovely human and great at expressing herself as an artist." Roberts was notably seen at Swift's Eras Tour in Dublin, Ireland, and Chicago, further solidifying her "Swiftie" status. She previously shared an Instagram post in 2023 expressing her love and appreciation for Swift, calling her "EVERYTHING WE EVER NEEDED!"

"Heavens, we have been working," Roberts joked about not having listened to Swift's new album yet. "I’m an old lady who needs her rest. I will probably have a chance on our way to London on the plane where I have it earmarked."

'After the Hunt': A Timely Thriller

Directed by Luca Guadagnino and penned by Nora Garrett, "After the Hunt" delves into complex themes of academia, power dynamics, and sexual assault. The film features Roberts as a college professor whose student, played by Ayo Edebiri, accuses a colleague (Andrew Garfield) of misconduct. The ensemble cast also includes Chloë Sevigny, Thaddea Graham, Will Price, Lio Mehiel, and Ariyan Kassam. The film is slated for release by Amazon MGM Studios on October 10th.

Guadagnino's Direction and Societal Commentary

Guadagnino’s direction is expected to bring a nuanced perspective to the sensitive subject matter. Film critic, Peter Debruge, notes, "Guadagnino has a knack for exploring complex human relationships and societal issues with a visually compelling and emotionally resonant style. 'After the Hunt' has the potential to spark important conversations about consent, accountability, and the challenges faced by individuals who come forward with allegations of abuse."

On-Screen Chemistry

At the premiere, Roberts was accompanied by Michael Stuhlbarg, who portrays her husband in the film. Roberts praised Stuhlbarg's performance, stating, "I have been a longtime admirer of Michael’s and I think from the beginning there was just something that felt so good and always a little where is this going to go? It just felt right. I never knew what Michael was going to do. He was always doing something."

Looking Ahead

As "After the Hunt" prepares for its theatrical release, it is poised to be a significant entry in the fall film season. Roberts' commitment to both her craft and her advocacy, as demonstrated by her fashion choice and her support of fellow artists like Taylor Swift, continues to solidify her position as a respected and influential figure in Hollywood.
