      > In his new memoir, Runaway Train: Or the Story of My Life So Far, the prolific character actor apologizes to his sister for saying he made her famous. “Now one of the things I’d like to apologize for in this book is for publicly saying on more than one occasion, ‘If it wasn’t for me, there would be no Julia Roberts,’” Roberts writes. “That’s not only unfortunate, but it’s also untrue. And I hope Julie will accept this more public apology. It was an asinine thing to have said. I was proud of her, but it was pride turned on its head, to my own advantage.”

      > Roberts notes that Julia could have easily succeeded without his intervention. “She’s a very driven woman,” he says. “Someone would have plucked her out of the crowd in a place like New York without my help.”

      Stupid thing to say especially since he didn’t make himself famous.

      TIL that Emma Roberts is his daughter. Looks like she got her acting chops from her aunt.

      He’s definitely a troubled guy who’s trying to make amends. Good on him.

      This whole family has decades of bad takes. Whatever. Thanks for your thoughts, Eric.

      I used to help take care of his horse, I had a horse boarded at the same barn.

      Dude with an absentee owner, and was a danger to himself when he rode.
      Segan was the horses name. This was in Shadow Hills in Los Angeles.

      Eric Roberts is a solid actor, he played a mob boss in The Dark Knight

      Being famous happens to a lot of people, staying famous does not. Julie stuck.

      Yeah but watch D.B. Cooper vs Bigfoot and you tell me who’s the more famous sibling

      So I’m this many days old to learn Eric is Julia’s brother. I’ll be damned

      I’ve seen him in tons of stuff, but I always forget his name to the point I google him everytime i see him…..unlike Julia’s name which i never forget (most of the time)

      His Howard Stern interview from the 90s is classic (readily available on the interwebs). He goes on for an hour about how nasty Julia is and how he got her a SAG card and put her in a few of his movies and then after Pretty Woman she dropped him and disowned him. Her management then started threatening him with lawsuits if he mentions her again in any interviews and ever since he’s been afraid to criticize her 

      Looks like he’s still afraid of her
