And now, for something completely different: five months after going short and brunette, Theron and Abergel shocked us all when he chopped her hair into a bowl cut that, from the minute he posted it on his Instagram feed, went viral.
"At the time, she was shooting Fast and Furious, and when I read the script, I thought about her character. I was like, 'I think this woman is someone who is bold, who takes risks, and who really feels powerful and empowered to do what she wants.' So I pulled loads of imagery — all of those early Peter Lindbergh photos of Linda Evangelista and that great photo shoot where all of the supermodels were in bowl haircuts — and I sat down with Charlize and I said, 'I think this would be super cool.' And she said, 'OK, if you think so.'"
"I don't think I slept for a week because it was such a huge change and shift, and because once you do a bowl cut, there's really no going back until it fully grows out," Abergel said, laughing.
