With two upcoming high-profile roles — in Snow White And The Huntsman, due on June 1, and Prometheus, due one week later — Charlize Theron is being honored in Las Vegas by CinemaCon with its Distinguished Decade of Achievement in Film Award. The honor will be handed out April 26 at the theater owner’s convention’s awards ceremony. Theron, a new mother on top of everything else, is coming off some of the best reviews of her career in the 2011 dramatic comedy, Young Adult. She won a Best Actress Oscar for 2003′s Monster, in which she played against her looks by playing Daytona Beach prostitute Aileen Wournos, who became a serial killer. The CinemaCon convention is the annual Las Vegas meeting put on by the National Association of Theater Owners.


Great for Charlize. She is the best!!
My favorite African-American actress.
Such a dynamic and ambitious actor — with PERFECT taste in material. Well deserved.
“I’d like to thank my manager….”
Congratulations to Charlize. Looking forward to seeing her play the heavy in Prometheus.
charlize theron looks gorgeous and happy!
she looks just amazing!!
Richly deserved. Can’t wait to see her in Prometheus.
With the exception of MONSTER, each one of her performances has been flat.
She seems like a nice person and all and she’s gorgeous but let’s be honest here. Other than Monster, she really hasn’t done anything of note. Mostly junk like Aeon Flux and Young Adult. She really dropped the ball.
Hahahahaha. You can’t even name two films she failed in. Remember those awesome reviews she got for Young Adult?
