Charlize Theron, the South African/American actress who’s best known for her role in The Devil’s Advocate, has revealed that she finds it easier to act sex scenes with women.

The 41-year-old played roles in Mad Max: Fury Road (2015), The Fate of the Furious (2017), A Million Ways to Die in the West (2014), and more.

Theron, a multiple awards winner, has an upcoming movie titled Atomic Blonde, where she unreservedly got down to it with fellow actress Sofia Boutella.

The actresses performed some jaw-dropping sex scenes with Sofia in the Cold War-era action thriller about a female English spy who was sent to Berlin in 1989 to expose a deadly espionage ring.

She needed help and more than that from her French contact in order to achieve her set goals.

Theron’s explicit love scene is a direct contrast to her previous role as Aileen Wuornos, a lesbian killer in Monster, but she says doing something unusual makes her feel good.

Speaking in an interview with Extra, Theron said: “…With Sofia, it was easy just because we’re both dancers and you have to choreograph those scenes quite a bit. Otherwise they just become silly.”

She continued: “There is a technical aspect to it, so with her it was really easy because she thinks like me because we’re dancers.

“We shot that scene in, like, 45 minutes and with the guys, they’re not dancers, so, it takes a bit more work.”

Theron is a staunch supporter of same-sex marriage. She attended a solidarity march and rally in Fresno, California to prove a point on 30 May 2009.

The mother-of-two said she will never tie the knots with any male until gay marriage is legalized in the United States.

She was in a relationship with Stuart Townsend, an English professional golfer and actor, between 2001 – 2010; and has two adopted children.

“I don’t want to get married because right now the institution of marriage feels very one-sided, and I want to live in a country where we all have equal rights,” she said in a 2011 interview with Film Journal International.

“I think it would be exactly the same if we were married, but for me to go through that kind of ceremony, because I have so many friends who are gays and lesbians who would so badly want to get married, that I wouldn’t be able to sleep with myself.”

Theron later appeared on Piers Morgan Tonight, where she elaborated on her earlier statements.

“I do have a problem with the fact that our government hasn’t stepped up enough to make this federal, to make [gay marriage] legal. I think everybody has that right.”
