Julia Roberts is the face of Chopard’s latest campaign.
The iconic actress, 53, teamed up with the luxury Swiss watch and jewellery brand as they launch their largest global campaign to date.
A new ad for Chopard, directed by Canadian director Xavier Dolan, dropped on Tuesday and stars Roberts and their iconic Happy Sport watch collection.

In a statement, Caroline Scheufele, the President of Chopard, explained why she chose Roberts for the campaign, revealing their relationship began when the Oscar-winning actress walked the steps at Cannes, barefoot. The iconic walk has become a memorable red carpet moment for Roberts, who wore an off-the-shoulder black dress highlighting a Chopard Haute Joaillerie emerald and diamond necklace.
“It was her and nobody else!” Scheufele said. “Julia Roberts was the only person I felt could convey the spirit that I see in Happy Sport.”

The Happy Sport watch collection was first introduced in 1993.
