Did you know? Theron shaves her head for a new role!

She has gotten rid of her pretty blonde locks for her upcoming movie Mad Max: Fury Road.

Snow White And The Huntsman star Charlize Theron, who has shaved her head for a role in upcoming movie Mad Max: Fury Road, feels others should also try it and feel liberated. She has gotten rid of her pretty blonde locks and has lost the title of the ‘fairest of them all’.

The 36-year-old South African actor was recently spotted in Beverly Hills with her son Jackson. And while she tried to hide her new look under a pork pie hat, the scale of the work done by her hairdresser was obvious to see around the back and sides, reports dailymail.co.uk.

Her rep has confirmed the real reason for her transformation is for her role as Furiosa in Mad Max: Fury Road, the fourth film in the post apocalyptic series.

“It’s the most freeing thing. I highly recommend it. I think every woman should do it. I had two huge garbage bags full of hair products. It’s so freeing,” she said, according to contactmusic.com. “I’m very excited about it. It’s been three years and it’s time to skin this cat already!”
