Her role as “psychotic prom queen bitch” Mavis Gary in Jason Reitman's fourth movie –written by Diablo Cody – shows a different side to Charlize... One that sees her playing a complete and utter cow.
“Being a bitch wasn’t hard for me at all,” she laughs. “Okay, I take it back – that’s the stuff you dream of doing, especially having a director like Jason saying, ‘Yeah, more of that!’
Other choice cuts of Charlizeyness include this one on dealing with her co-star, a dog called Dolce:
“Jason wanted an emotional breakdown with the dog at the end, and that didn’t happen. Because that dog wouldn’t give me an emotional breakdown. That dog said, ‘You know what? You’re not going to get anything from me today.’ My face was covered in apple sauce, I had liver pate on my breasts, I was dog treat heaven, and I couldn’t get this dog to focus.”
