Charlize Theron Set to Star as Megyn Kelly in Roger Ailes Film

Charlize Theron will be taking on the role of Megyn Kelly in an upcoming flick, according to THR.

The 42-year-old actress will be playing the Fox News personality in a film about disgraced Fox News chairman Roger Ailes.

The movie will reportedly follow her career as she rose up through the ranks from lawyer to host of The Kelly File and how she refused to come out in support of Roger after sexual harassment allegations.

The project is being put together by Annapurna and will be directed by Jay Roach.

Charlize will also produce.
