Monster

In the 2003 dark drama Monster, the South African beauty was unrecognizable in her role as serial killer/ former prostitute Aileen Wuornos. She gained 30 pounds and had an incredible cosmetic make-under by renowned make-up artist Toni G (Pirates of the Caribbean, Dawn of the Dead, Planet of the Apes) who used splotchy makeup and prosthetic teeth that resembled the real-life figure. Theron’s intense commitment to this role paid off, earning her both an Academy Award and Golden Globe Award for Best Actress.

Æon Flux

Theron amped up her appearance to play a sexy assassin in the 2005 film Æon Flux, based on the TV cartoon franchise of the same name. She trained for 4 months prior to filming using her dance background, Cirque de Soleil gymnastics, and various forms of martial arts. Her impeccable physique and athleticism was topped off with a sleek, dark haircut and tight leather bodysuits. No one can doubt her ass-kicking skills looking as hot and dangerous as she did for this role.

Snow White and the Huntsman

Theron fully embraces royalty and madness in each gown she wears, all of which were intricately designed by Hollywood costume designer Colleen Atwood. Theron’s interest in playing the queen is not solely based on having an amazing wardrobe, but proves to be another opportunity for her to dive into the mind of a complex character. This is one of Theron’s most edgy and theatrical roles to date, as the audience watches her power and sanity unravel.
