The South African actress speaks without a wink about her job and the fantasy of the woman who cannot age.
Charlize Theron is perhaps one of the most interesting actresses of her generation. The one who would have been content to play beautiful blondes rescued by the brave hero preferred to have a varied career between action films and independent dramas. Decisions that led her to the Oscar for Best Actress in 2004 for her role as a murderous prostitute (where she was crowned at the same time as her former companion Sean Penn). “Monster.”
But this little cinematic gem should not remain without a sequel: Charlize then made a film of it “In the Valley of Elah”, “Far from the scorched earth” “The street”or even the thundering one “Crazy Max”. A real visual slap in the face that gave her perhaps her most beautiful role, that of a strong woman for whom Hollywood often leaves little room. What do these films have in common? Subtle interpretations of deep roles that young people in their mid-forties appreciate.
However, attaining this grail is not necessarily easy for physically beautiful people, as she explains in the latest issue of GQ. “Really serious jobs are for people who are physically fit, period.”, She says. “How many roles have been written for the damn 1.80 meter tall, beautiful model in an elegant dress? When the roles with some substance came along, I was in the running, but the pretty candidates were the first to get fired.“Clichés are difficult to avoid, especially when you're one of Dior's main muses… However, the fact that you can combine talent, seriousness and a dream body is proven by the actress, who once again appears statuesque on the cover of the British edition of the magazine.”
