Released in theaters in 2004, Monster, directed by Patty Jenkins, tells the true story of Eileen Wuornos, a prostitute turned serial killer (she committed six murders between 1989 and 1990 before being arrested, convicted, and sentenced to death). In the role of the American, we meet the incredible Charlize Theron, who underwent an impressive physical transformation for the needs of the film.
In Monster, Charlize Theron, whose transformation is as mind-blowing as the actress who ate only an apple and a tuna a day, is completely unrecognizable. In order to play the role of a serial killer and look like his model, he had to completely change his physical appearance: in addition to the latex mask and false teeth that he wore during filming, the actor gained about fifteen kilograms.
This metamorphosis paid off Charlize Theron who, recognized for her performance, won an Academy Award for Best Actress, a Silver Bear for Best Actress, as well as a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama.
This experience was celebrated Charlize Theron As the years go by, he no longer wants to physically hurt himself for the role. I will never again make a film and say to myself: yes, I will lose 18 kilograms”– said the actor last year on the Allure website. “I’ll never do it again because you can’t get rid of it. I did it at 27 monster. I lost 13 kilos overnight. I skipped three meals and returned to my normal weight.”
“Nobody wants to hear that.”
“Then I did it at the age of 43 Tully“Charlize Theron continues. “And I remember a year after trying to lose weight, I called my doctor and said, ‘I think I’m going to die because I can’t lose this weight.’ I said, ‘You’re over 40. Relax. Your metabolism isn’t what it used to be.” Nobody wants to hear that.”
