CHARLIZE THERON’S BEST
For HBO: Our Favorite Roles
Charlize Theron’s upcoming projects might become more accessible as the dynamite actress has signed a first-look deal with HBO Max. Though that doesn’t mean everything she produces will go directly to the streaming platform, it does make it a possibility. And with that comes the potential of her vast catalog’s availability. Let’s take a look at our favorite Charlize films.
MONSTER
In Monster, she may not be the sex icon we expect, but her gripping, transformative performance demonstrates her natural acting ability. The film earned her an Oscar, and it’s easy to see why.
2 DAYS IN THE VALLEY
If you want to throw it back to an insanely sexy Charlize movie, we suggest 2 Days In The Valley. She is oh-so seductive in the 1996 film.
MAD MAX: FURY ROAD
Sure, Tom Hardy is our titular protagonist, but we rewatch this apocalyptic epic for Charlize. Her portrayal of Furiosa will go down as one of the best of all time. We can’t wait to see her in George Miller’s Furiosa spin-off.
ATOMIC BLONDE
We love bisexual badass. Charlize often kicks butt in her films, but Atomic Blonde takes the cake. We could watch her all day.
BOMBSHELL
Sometimes the most subtle changes are the most significant transformations. That’s the case in Bombshell. A prosthetic nose and change in voice make Charlize almost unrecognizable as Megyn Kelly. It’s truly uncanny.
YOUNG ADULT
If you’re looking for something fun and slightly less known, we recommend Young Adult. Charlize adds a certain grace and humility to this role. She is one impressive woman.
THE BURNING PLAIN
If you frequent PROVOKR, you may recognize this title as one of our movie of the week installments. In it, Charlize stars alongside Jennifer Lawrence. Both women deliver stunning performances that you’ll never forget.
