Julia Roberts has landed at CAA.
The actress stunned industry insiders last month when she left ICM after more than 10 years at the agency, a period in which Roberts became the first female star to earn $20 million per picture, won an Oscar for 2000's "Erin Brockovich" and started a production company.
At the time of her departure, sources said Roberts had decided to go without agency representation for the time being (HR 4/29).
For CAA, signing Roberts is a coup that bolsters its position as the home of many of Hollywood's top female stars, including Nicole Kidman, Renee Zellweger, Gwyneth Paltrow, Julianne Moore, Cameron Diaz, Sandra Bullock and Kate Hudson.
Roberts next stars in Revolution Studios' "Mona Lisa Smile."
