Never accuse Charlize Theron of leaning on a stunt double — she has the root canals to prove she does it on her own.
Following the unmitigated triumph at its world premiere in SXSW, Theron brought “Atomic Blonde” to CinemaCon 2017 where she talked the consequences of her gritty, hand-to-hand combat sequences.
“You cracked your teeth, didn’t you?” panel host Natalie Morales asked Theron.
“I’m on my fourth root canal. Thanks, David,” Theron said referring to director David Leitch, who’s about to head off to direct “Deadpool 2.”
The Cold War-set action film sees Theron as a British spy in Germany just five days before the fall of the Berlin Wall.
