Eric Roberts, the Dark Night actor and older brother to Julia Roberts, will soon appear in Human Centipede 3.

Eric Roberts Talks 'Human Centipede 3'

Roberts, who plays Governor Hughes in the gross-out horror flick, reveals that the third installment in the Human Centipede franchise is set in a prison.

“We have a centipede that is made of prison inmates, and they’re all hooked together,” Roberts revealed to Entertainment Weekly. “When you see this, you will never want to commit a crime and go to prison. It’s really horrible.”

“If you can imagine a hot summer day,” he continued, “and there are hundreds of men all bent over and they consist of the human centipede.”

As for his character, a newcomer to the franchise, Roberts remained tight-lipped, claiming, “I’m sworn to secrecy.”

Roberts had primarily been speaking to EW to discuss his upcoming appearance on Celebrity Wife Swap. On Tuesday night, Roberts trades his wife Eliza for the wife of Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous host Robin Leech, Joan. Apparently the Roberts live a low-key life, which includes keeping a squirrel sanctuary in their backyard, while the Leech’s like to dine out and hit the Las Vegas hotspots.

Human Centipede 3, written and directed by Tom Six, is due in theaters sometime this month.
