Charlize Theron

In 2011, she described her process for becoming the characters in her film:
"When I'm figuring out a character, for me it's easy, since once I say yes to something, I become super-obsessed about it – and I have an obsessive nature in general. How I want to play it starts at that moment. It's a very lonely, internal experience. I think about the character all the time – I observe things, I see things and file things in my head, everything geared to what I'm going to do. I'm obsessed with the human condition. You read the script and become obsessed with a character's nature, her habits. When the camera rolls, it's time to do my job, to do the honest truth. You can't do that part of the character-creation work when you're in the middle of making the film. At least I can't."
In 2012, she starred in Ridley Scott's science fiction film Prometheus. On 7th February 2013 it was announced that Theron was cast as Libby Day, the lead character in the film adaptation of the Gillian Flynn novel Dark Places. The film is to be directed by Gilles Paquet-Brenner, and Theron will also have a producer credit.
