Charlize Theron: Go see female-driven movies!

Charlize Theron spoke to fans at Comic-Con and addressed the Hollywood pay gap, her own pet peeves about female action star clichés and whether or not she'd be open to playing a female James Bond

Charlize Theron is throwing it back to her early modeling days.

On Thursday, the Oscar-winning actress shared a photo of herself from her first modeling competition in her native South Africa.

"Pulled a full Marie Kondo and came across this gem," Theron, 43, captioned the picture, which featured the "Tully" star rocking a magenta colored tulle top with a tie bow detail around the waist.

"My first modeling competition back in South Africa," she continued. "Really wishing I kept this top. #tbt"

CHARLIZE THERON CONSIDERS LEAVING AMERICA OVER RACISM

Theron, who was discovered by a Hollywood talent scout at the age of 18, recently made headlines for her dating life.

Last month, a new report claimed that Theron and Brad Pitt were an item after meeting through the actress' ex, Sean Penn.

"They have been casually seeing each other for nearly a month now," a source told The Sun of Pitt and Theron at the time. "They've been friends for some time — ironically through Sean — but things have developed."

CHARLIZE THERON AND BRAD PITT DATING AFTER MEETING THROUGH HER EX SEAN PENN: REPORT 

Spies claimed to the outlet that the reported couple got cozy one weekend in January after Pitt, 55, hosted a screening of "If Beale Street Could Talk" and Theron, 43, was a guest of honor at a "Roma" event at Los Angeles' Chateau Marmont.

However, another source denied that the two were seeing each other to People magazine. “About six months ago, they did a shoot together,” a source told the news site. “They have spent time together.”

The insider noted: “They have not been out together recently, and were never dating. Reports of them being involved romantically are false.”
