The actress breaks a spear for the normalization of non-heteros-xual scenes in the cinema.
If there are s-x scenes in the script, let them be with women. That's what you think of Charlize Theron every time she's faced with a film project that involves high-heat situations, and she's let it be known in an interview with Extra. "With Sofia [Boutella, in Atomic Blonde] it was easy because we are both dancers and you have to choreograph those scenes a bit," she said. “If not, they become absurd. They have a technical aspect that, with her, was really easy”.
Although the film will be released in Spain on August 4, Universal Pictures published the second trailer for Atomic Blonde in April, and in it you can see the explosive South African starring in scenes of a lot of action, although the bed scene that shares with Sofía Boutella and with whom it is understood what they refer to in their statements. “With the guys, they're not dancers, so it's a little more work. Doing a love scene with a guy is different, though I enjoy both of them,” she added.
The news comes after Ben Affleck sowed controversy (and aroused the ire of Evan Rachel Wood) by commenting that "a man kissing another man is the greatest acting challenge an actor can take on." Some statements that sounded absolutely out of date. Fortunately, those of Charlize Theron, beyond the morbidity that they clearly arouse at first sight, what they do is normalize the visibility of love and sex in cinema in an LGBTIQ+ context.
