Charlize Theron thinks she is miserable
Actress Charlize Theron says she could relate to her role of a self-destructive teen in her upcoming film 'Young Adult' because she herself is "miserable".
The 36-year-old insists she didn't have to try too hard to achieve the series of unpleasant expressions her character displays in the film, reported Contactmusic.
Asked if she had to practice her sneery looks she said, "No, I'm miserable. I realised how important it was, just the look on the face thing, when we did the first four days in Minneapolis.
"By day two I was like, 'Wow this is really kind of insular. I realised I had to come up with a way to show who this character was without really saying that much," Theron said.
The actress also said she was attracted to do the movie, written by Diablo Cody and Jason Reitman, because the role was a gift with a fascinating background.
"I mean, this character was eating cake for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It was just a gift. It was really interesting because I think the character could easily have been fun and outlandish and what's great about Jason being the shepherd and Diablo writing is there was a foundation to it - it wasn't just 'Let's go for the joke'."
