I’ll give you a hint: bzzzz.
Charlize Theron’s Furiosa truly came to be.
In honor of our @CTAOP drive-in screening of #MadMaxFuryRoad tonight, throwing it back to the point of no return with creating Furiosa. A huge thank you to @TheGroveLA and @ChadHudsonEvent for making tonight happen! So excited to see this movie on the big screen again ???????????? pic.twitter.com/tIZzRw64Gv

This clip, shared by Theron on Twitter, was shared in honour of a drive-in showing of Fury Road held Friday night in Los Angeles as part of a benefit for CTAOP, an organisation Theron founded to help protect young people in Africa from HIV. Drive-ins are pretty much the only way to watch movies outside of the house nowadays, and this seems like a particularly excellent event to have been a part of.
And the moment itself: it’s a good one. While her head-shaving technique isn’t ideal (generally, one wants to cut the hair short first to give the razer less trouble), it’s still a thrilling thing to see. This is when Furiosa’s look started to take shape, a look that would define one of the best films in the contemporary history of action movies.
We can only hope that whoever plays Furiosa in the prequel looks half as cool.
