Theron hasn’t been very active on the big screen lately. Her last live-action feature film was the 2009 adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s exuberant pick-me-up The Road. She is currently filming Snow White and the Hunstmen, in which she’s playing the part of the Evil Queen. She can next be seen in the Jason Reitman-directed/Diablo Cody-penned comedy Young Adult, which opens December 16, 2011.
