Charlize Theron was hesitant to play Megyn Kelly in her upcoming film, ‘Bombshell.’
It was the former Fox News anchor's personality traits, however, that convinced the actress to take on the role."Ultimately, I understood her strength and ambition," she explains."Megyn herself says, 'I know I'm tough' -- and that's something I've heard about myself. People told Megyn she had sharp elbows, that she was hard. I've had people judge me and say the same things about me.
Kidman stars as Gretchen Carlson in the movie, while Robbie plays a composite character, associate producer Kayla Popisil. Theron says she hopes the film -- which hits theaters on Dec. 13 -- will have an effect on audiences. "This film is, hopefully, like taking medicine: It doesn’t answer every question and it isn’t the cure, but hopefully it does speed the process of change," she says.
