Around the time when the first poster of eminent filmmaker Christopher Nolan’s awaited next venture, titled ‘The Odyssey’, is going viral on the internet, Charlize Theron has now confirmed her role as Circe, the primary antagonist to Odysseus, in the mythic epic, and revealed that she will begin shooting in a couple of weeks.
When asked about her preparations to play the goddess of sorcery, Theron shared, “I don’t know; I am just going to talk to Chris (Christopher Nolan) about it and will see where it goes.”
“It’s super intimidating,” she continued to confess and added, “I will be the last one to show up. I will be the new kid on the block. Everybody will know what they are doing and not me.”
