Charlize Theron's Bold Red Carpet Statement at The Old Guard 2 Premiere

Charlize Theron made sure all eyes were on her racy red carpet look during The Old Guard 2 premiere, which was held at Netflix Tudum Theater in Hollywood on Wednesday

CHARLIZE THERON SIZZLES ON THE RED CARPET AS SHE JOINS FELLOW CASTMEMBERS FOR 'THE OLD GUARD 2' PREMIERE

The streets of Hollywood were ablaze with glamour as Charlize Theron, the sultry Oscar winner, brought her A-game to the premiere of Netflix's highly anticipated superhero sequel, "The Old Guard 2". The sizzling star stunned in a daring black-fishnet catsuit from Givenchy's FW/25 collection, emblazoned with the iconic label's logo, leaving onlookers and fellow castmembers alike utterly entranced.

Theron, who celebrates her milestone 50th birthday in August, looked every inch the statuesque supermodel as she flaunted her toned physique beneath the onesie. The 5ft10in stunner flashed a hint of black bra and high-waisted panty beneath the daring ensemble, which was expertly styled by Leslie Fremar to create a vampy, Old Hollywood-inspired look.

But it wasn't just Theron's daring getup that stole the show - her hair, courtesy of hairstylist Adir Abergel, was also a major talking point. The signature short blonde bob was scraped into an elaborate double-ponytail updo, adding an extra layer of sophistication to the actress's already-chic look.

As Theron made her way down the red carpet, she was met with admiring gazes from her fellow castmembers, including Uma Thurman, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Marwan Kenzari, KiKi Layne, and Henry Golding. The statuesque Golden Globe winner flashed a radiant smile as she posed for photos, her makeup artist Kate Lee having brought out the best in her with a subtle yet striking look that accentuated her signature features.

But the real highlight of the evening was Theron's effusive praise for her co-star Uma Thurman, who joined her on the red carpet looking every inch the Hollywood legend. "The great Uma Thurman! She's a legend," Theron gushed in an interview with The View earlier that week. "By the time Uma and I were together [on set], it was just awesome. It was like everything I think all of us wanted and thought and imagined. She is just, to me, one of the greats. She really is, and I've just loved her in all of her movies."

Theron and Thurman reunited on the small screen for the first time in "The Old Guard 2", which premieres July 2. The pair played rival warrior Andromache 'Andy' of Scythia (Theron) and villainous Discord (Thurman), respectively, in a climactic battle scene involving four helicopters - a moment that marked the culmination of their on-screen chemistry.

But the real story behind "The Old Guard 2" is one of perseverance. The Netflix superhero sequel, based on Greg Rucka's 2017 graphic novel and executive produced by Theron, wrapped production way back in 2022. And yet, here we are, with a highly anticipated film that promises to deliver all the action-packed thrills and drama fans have come to expect from this genre.

As for Thurman, she looked every inch the consummate professional as she arrived at the premiere clad in a stunning beige Nehru-collared sleeveless top, matching maxi-skirt, and strappy sandals. Her hair was styled in loose waves, with a subtle smoky eye adding depth to her gaze. Fred Leighton jewelry added a touch of elegance to her overall look.

Thurman's co-stars also brought their A-game to the premiere, with KiKi Layne flashing her thigh in a strapless silver embellished creation selected by stylist Oretta Corbelli. Henry Golding looked dashing in a baby-blue Nehru-collared shirt beneath a navy-blue double-breasted suit, dark Oxfords, and a fancy timepiece. Chiwetel Ejiofor wore a white Henley top beneath a matching blazer, black pleated trousers, and matching loafers, while Marwan Kenzari opted for a blue asymmetric button-up shirt with black wide-leg trousers and matching shoes.

As the stars of "The Old Guard 2" mingled on the red carpet, it was clear that this was an evening to remember. And for Charlize Theron, Uma Thurman, and the rest of the cast, it marked the culmination of a journey that had been years in the making. So, what are you waiting for? Get ready to join the action-packed adventure of "The Old Guard 2", premiering July 2 on Netflix.
