Star of The Road, Viggo Mortensen certainly looks dapper on the red carpet for the AFI Film Festival screening of the movie based on the Cormac McCarthy novel. But during filming of the movie, the actor reportedly didn’t shower at all during the course of filming in order to get into character.

This was news to his glamorous co-star, Charlize Theron, who is herself no stranger to roughing it. However, she was still surprised to hear the news of Mortensen’s method.

Theron told reporters, “What?! I didn’t hear that. I was only there for three days! Even if I didn’t shower for three days, that’s not that bad, right? Compared to an entire film!”

Charlize Theron and Viggo Mortensen reflect on life at the American Film Institute’s premiere of ‘The Road’ on Wednesday night in Los Angeles.

Based on the Cormac McCarthy tale of a widower (Viggo) and his son (Kodi Smit-McPhee), the movie follows the two as they struggle to survive in a post-apocalyptic world. Viggo, who was honored by the AFI at the event, said of his young co-star, “I felt such affection for the boy who I didn’t know before this. Now he is like my son.”

Reflecting on what he gained by portraying this role, Viggo said, “I think telling the story made me value just being alive and having family members who are alive, having friends. It’s a simple thing, really, but it’s like in any work of art, great painting, piece of music, a movie, that in the end tells you something that you already knew…A movie that tells you that and earns that like this one does, it’s worth its weight in gold.”

Charlize, who plays his deceased wife, said she “really responded to the book.” It “made me realize that even given the worst case scenario, that there’s great hope in us as human people and we can’t forget that,” said the actress.

‘The Road’ opens in theaters on November 25.

Charlize Theron has signed on for the revival of the actor’s post-apocalyptic Mad Max movies.

Charlize will star in the fourth installment of the franchise – last seen on our screens in 1985 – with Mad Max: Fury Road.

British actor Tom Hardy will be the Burning Plain beauty’s leading man when they start filming in Australia next August.

No news on whether Mel — who launched his career as an Aussie unknown in the original 1979 Max Max movie – will be involved.

The trilogy (Mad Max, Road Warrior and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, starring Tina Turner) is set in a dystopian future world ruled by violent gangs.

Charlize Theron has revealed the bizarre nickname bestowed on her by former co-star Jeremy Renner.

Apparently the South African actress goes by the name of “Ass-Nuts” when she is in the company of her American friend.

As to the origins of the moniker, Charlize is keeping schtum. All she will reveal is that it stems from a boozy evening.

The 34-year-old actress starred alongside Jeremy in 2005’s North Country.

She told E! that the name stuck after the cast went out for a few drinks.

“I can’t tell you what transpired, but let me just say I found a friend for life in Jeremy, and he has ever since then referred to me as Ass-Nuts,” Charlize said.

She added: “I wish that was a joke, but it’s true.”

Could this be a casting development for the upcoming Mad Max sequel/reboot? There have been rumors floating around regarding the fourth installment of the action franchise that made Mel Gibson a star for years. Director George Miller has been more than vocal about his desire to produce another film. Now we’re hearing rumors via EOnline that Oscar winner Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy may have been cast as the leads in the new film.

The working title being used for the film is Mad Max: Fury Road, instead of Mad Max 4 (that doesn’t roll the tongue as well). According to multiple sources, Theron is already on board to star as the female lead in the movie that will feature British actor Tom Hardy replacing Gibson in the title role. Miller stated himself that Gibson was too old to continue on in the series so he planned to recast him.
