The more that's revealed about Julia Roberts' new inside Hollywood comedy -- ''America's Sweethearts,'' due this July -- the more outlandish it seems. CNN's Larry King, who has a cameo in the flick, reports the Oscar winner sports a 190 pound fat suit as the tubby sister / personal assistant of a beloved actress (Catherine Zeta-Jones).
And Mrs. Michael Douglas has her own challenges, tussling in one scene with King. ''I make her cry, cry bad,'' boasts the talk show host. In the movie, Zeta-Jones' character falls from grace after leaving hubby John Cusack for a Mexican hunk, and draws King's wrath -- in Cusack's dream. The Suspendered One was to have also punched the actress, but CNN vetoed the violence -- which is fine by Zeta-Jones: ''No can do -- no punching women,'' says the actress, who enjoyed seeing King's darker side. ''Larry's so mean to me in this movie. I love it!''
