Charlize recently shared why she decided to play Mavis Gary in her latest film, Young Adult.

“I’d be blind to not see the potential in the character. These are the kinds of roles women wait for,” Charlize expressed. “Yeah, it scared me. There’s so much about her – when you hold up the mirror, you see almost too much you don’t want to acknowledge. But that coincides with what makes my job exciting.”
