Highlights
- Actress Charlize Theron felt she had made it big when she landed her first film role in Children Of The Corn III: Urban Harvest, until she saw the movie and realised her voice had been dubbed.
- The 36-year-old started her Hollywood career with a supporting role in the horror movie, playing a follower of an evil child killer in the adaption of Stephen King's short story, reported Daily Star.
- Theron recalls boasting to her mother that she had made it but was shocked when she saw a preview and realised the producers had used another actress' scream in the place of hers.
- "I felt like I'd made it! I remember very vividly they asked us to bring our own clothes and they had to be black. I was living hand to mouth at the time but I had invested in these nice black and white Pumas (sneakers). And so, having never been in a film, I wore my new shoes. An hour into shooting I was lying in a cornfield and fake blood was being dripped all over my new shoes. But I remember telling my mum, 'I made it, I'm in a movie!' Then going to the screening and hearing my voice dubbed... I didn't even say anything in the film, I only screamed! I felt a little bit like, 'Wow, my scream isn't good enough for the big screen'," Theron said.
