Resume: Charlize Theron

Charlize Theron hasn't worked a ton for Last Resort Films, but she is still one of the biggest female stars on the planet. With her latest film, Genetic Descent, about to hit theaters, we will take a look at the filmography of this enchanting star....


















Season 2

Charlize Theron made her LRF debut with the high-profile drama Atlas Shrugged in Season 2. Theron headlined the expensive drama as the intrepid industrialist Dagny Taggart. Theron's performance in the film was well-regarded, but the film itself failed at the box office for a multitude of reasons and only received mixed reviews from critics.

Season 7

Domestic Box Office: $182,318,075
Foreign Box Office: $216,566,046
Total Profit: $60,949,151


After several seasons away from the studio, Theron returned as the villain of the A-List action-comedy from director Shane Black and writer Jack Ryder. The film was a box office hit and found fans among the critic crowd as well.

Season 8

The Banded Ants 3 - Showdown

Theron next performed a voice role for the finale of The Banded Ants trilogy as an ant queen. The film, like the rest of the series, was a huge hit for the studio at the box office even though critics were a bit lukewarm on the film.

Season 12

The Reign of Lady Morgana

After another several seasons away, Theron returned for this fantasy horror film where she plays a beautiful witch. The film was a sizable bomb at the box office, and critics were not favorable to the film at all.

Up Next: Theron has Genetic Descent about to hit theaters. After that, it looks likely that Theron will be away from the studio for another several seasons.
