Extraordinary talent was all
Tom Hanks needed to see to cast Theron in his directorial debut, That
Thing You Do!. The two time Academy Award-winning actor brought this story
to film from the script he authored. It told the tale of a small town rock
band, "The Wonders" and the hit song that brings them fame. Theron
portrayed Tina, Guy's (Tom Everett Scott) hometown girlfriend who is less
than dazzled by "The Wonders" overnight success.
Theron has risen to the challenge of a variety
of roles in a rather short period of time. This incredibly talented
actress began her career as a model in her native South Africa. She worked
extensively in fashion capitols such as Milan and Paris before coming to
the U.S.
Audiences saw Theron star
in Woody Allen's Celebrity for which she received rave reviews and Mighty
Joe Young opposite Bill Paxton for Disney. She starred opposite Johnny
Depp in New Line Cinema's The Astronaut's Wife.
