She's an Oscar-winning actress who delivered, as Roger Ebert put it, "One of the greatest performances in the history of the cinema" in
Monster, the 2003 biographical Patty Jenkins-helmed film about female serial killer Aileen Wuornos. Charlize Theron broke out of her previous typecasting as the "hot chick" (Offer to star in
Showgirls,
The Italian Job,etc) by gaining weight and wearing prosthetics to help transform herself for the role. Her next Oscar nomination came in 2005 for
North Country, in which she plays a female mine worker fighting for respect in the workplace. She ultimately lost to Reese Witherspoone (Felicity Huffman should've beaten both tbh).
She took a bit of a hiatus from Hollywood for a few years (although she still did some less major roles), but she came back in 2011 with Jason Reitman's
Young Adult, delivering what has been described as one of the greatest performances of the decade. The caustic nature of the character kept her from an Oscar nomination, but she nabbed several critical mentions and a Golden Globe nomination. Charlize Theron's latest film was
A Million Ways to Die in the West with Seth McFarlane, and her next upcoming film is
Mad Max: Fury Road.
Basically she's flawless.
