  • The Addams Family (2019)
    Jul 11 2024
    Watch The Theron is back and ready to catch up on what we've missed! First up: 2019's animated film The Addams Family! After establishing our history with the Addams Family (across its many incarnations), we talk about whether this particular version is as good as it could be and we wonder what its goals are. We talk about how the cast would be great in a live action version, and wonder if that's why they were cast in these (voice only) roles. We wonder if Charlize was given any motivation for her character, and we talk about how hard it must be for anyone playing Morticia to not simply channel Anjelica Huston. We pitch some ideas for how the film's two main storylines could have crossed over. We talk about the animation style and character designs. We look ahead to The Addams Family 2.

  • Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)
    Aug 11 2023
    The future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe may be a bit hazy, but what's perfectly clear is that Charlize Theron was in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness! Dropped into a credits scene, Charlize takes the role of Clea, who seems to know the titular Doctor Strange very well. Who is she? What role could she play? Why did Marvel use her now? We return to Watch The Theron for a quick episode to catch up on her role in the MCU and how she may be used down the road. We also discuss Charlize's recent history (and near future?) of acting exclusively in established franchises, how her entrance into the MCU is new ground for us, and whether Marvel would have been better served to have saved her casting for the seemingly inevitable reboot of the universe in the next few years.

  • The School for Good and Evil (2022)
    Dec 5 2022
    Charlize is back! Well, she never left, but Watch The Theron is back for her newest movie: The School for Good and Evil, which is a very, very long movie. It's not made for our demographic, but Charlize is having fun (hooray!), so we try to have some fun, too. We talk about how it feels like The School for Good and Evil is a TV series condensed down to movie length, discuss the complicated adaptation backstory, and admire how good this movie looks and how good the effects are. We also wonder... Will there be sequels? Where did this movie come from? Why aren't the nepo babies of the fairy tale world more defined/dressed? We compare this movie to Snow White and the Huntsman, debate whether or not the title is a spoiler, and preview upcoming episodes of Watch The Theron -- covering both movies we've missed and Charlize's upcoming projects (which are, weirdly, all sequels). Joey explains a Netflix disc "scam." Mike stereotypes witches' names.
