In Fast and Furious 8, the newest Fast & Furious sequel, Charlize Theron gets ready to…rock?
A first look at Charlize Theron‘s adversarial character for the latest film in the Fast and Furious franchise was released today on the movie’s official Twitter account.
The 40-year-old actress, who played feminist road warrior Furiosa in 2015’s Mad Max: Fury Road, will be joining the franchise as Cipher, starring opposite Vin Diesel, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Jason Statham, Michelle Rodriguez, and Tyrese Gibson in the eighth installation of the action series.
Given that the shirt is a reference to Metallica’s first album, I’d put good money down that Charlize Theron has never listened to ‘Kill ‘Em All’. Then again, I don’t know her personally (surprise) so maybe she rocks Hetfield’s early stuff every weekend with a bottle of whiskey. I don’t know! Either way, Theron played one of cinema’s most badass heroines in FURY ROAD, so I’m excited to see what she can do up against the gravelly-voiced Vin Diesel!
Fast and Furious 8 is scheduled to hit theaters on April 14, 2017.
