Overview

• On June 24, Charlize Theron confirmed on Late Night with Seth Meyers that her mullet for The Old Guard 2 was a genuine haircut and not a movie prop.
• Daughters Jackson, 12, and August, 9, returned home excited but went silent, with one “literally bawling her eyes out” upon seeing the style change.
• Theron acknowledged that her personal style often skews edgy and masculine, clashing with her daughters’ preference for a more traditional, princess-like look.
• She seized the moment to explain that everyone has the right to choose their own appearance and that she does not dictate her children’s style choices.
• Josh Hartnett has similarly shared that his children also react tearfully when they witness his on-set transformations.
