Julia Roberts has confessed that her dream of starring in a film with her idol, Meryl Streep, didn't turn out as she had imagined.

The 'Pretty Woman' said that it was a nightmare when she had to strangle the 64-year-old Oscar winning actress while filming their upcoming flick 'August: Osage County,' the Daily Express reported.

Roberts said that Streep is a beautiful person and it was intimidating, certainly, to be in these scenes with her.

The 45-year-old actress said that choking the 'Devil wears Prada' star was not how she had pictured in her head all these years.

Roberts said that she pictured them together, sipping tea and speaking in fabulous accents, while being all dressed up.

She added that she was sweating from wearing a butt pad and it was not how it was in her dream.
