![]() The film industry looks for younger actresses for most movie genres, especially action and thrillers. I carried a responsibility since I was developing it that I couldn’t look back and say, ‘Well, you know, it was a script that was … ‘ I was in charge of everything, and I didn’t want to get it wrong, I wanted to get it right.” What It Means To Be A Female Actor In The Film Industry: “Time Is Running Out” Charlize Theron, bound by the ageist and misogynist practices of Hollywood, wanted to make ‘Atomic Blonde’ as quick as possibleĬharlize Theron’s anxieties were understandable and valid. It’s also the thing that drives me and put some real fire under my ass to get it right. “ I think the reason why I pushed as hard as I did on that film was because-and this is just a sad truth-there’s still a part of me as a female actor that always feels like this might be the last opportunity. Now they just need to make sure that they pull a John Wick and craft a sequel that's every bit as enjoyable as the original film.She further shared that she was having anxieties about her being a ‘female actor’ in an industry which looks for ideal young actresses. If it's just a matter of scheduling, however, it can likely be worked out. Part of it will depend on Theron's availability, of course, since she is now involved in multiple franchises and other projects. Of course, an Atomic Blonde sequel hasn't been announced yet, but given the generally positive response that fans and critics had to the film, it would be odd for the studio to pass up the opportunity. This gives time for Atomic Blonde to strike while the iron's hot. It's possible that Furiosa will never happen, and if it does it might still be several years out. While fans, Charlize Theron, and even George Miller would like to see it happen, the project has gone from sounding like a sure thing to sounding like something they'd love to do if it worked out. Part of the reason for this is that the Furiosa spinoff isn't a sure thing. Likewise, waiting too long and letting Theron move on with other projects could damage Atomic Blonde as a brand.Įven without considering any of the above, it's still entirely possible that Atomic Blonde 2 will happen before a Furiosa spinoff. While we won't know until the next film is released, the significant delay may end up hurting the success of Avatar 2. ![]() Holding off too long will cause people to start forgetting why they loved the original, and eventually they'll start to wonder "Why are they making a sequel to this now?" You can already see this sort of thing with James Cameron's Avatar sequels, with many wondering if Cameron waited too long to get started on the follow-up. Going with Atomic Blonde 2 before Furiosa would also help to establish the new franchise while the first film is still fresh on people's minds. ![]() It's similar to the success that Mark Hamill had as Luke Skywalker which was followed by years of struggling to get significant screen roles he was too well known as one character, and studios didn't want to risk their productions being overshadowed by that fame. If she becomes better known as Furiosa, though, the Atomic Blonde franchise could suffer because some fans might not be interested in seeing "just another action movie" with Theron. If she became better known as Lorraine, it likely wouldn't hurt Furiosa too much the character's already been established as part of a larger franchise, and the Mad Max connections would be enough of a draw to bring in some of the franchise's fans even if Max doesn't appear or only has a cameo. There's also the matter of which of the two characters fans would associate Charlize Theron with the most.
