Charlize Theron Covers 'British GQ' May 2016

Charlize Theron looks stunningly gorgeous on the cover of British GQ magazine’s May 2016 issue, photographed by Alexi Lubomirski.

Here’s what the 40-year-old actress had to share with the mag:

On being typecast because she’s beautiful: “Jobs with real gravitas go to people that are physically right for them and that’s the end of the story. How many roles are out there for the gorgeous, f***ing, gown-wearing eight-foot model? When meaty roles come through, I’ve been in the room and pretty people get turned away first.”

On ageing: “We live in a society where women wilt and men age like fine wine. And, for a long time, women accepted it. We were waiting for society to change, but now we’re taking leadership. It would be a lie to say there is less worry for women as they get older than there is for men… It feels there’s this unrealistic standard of what a woman is supposed to look like when she’s over 40.”
