Charlize Theron made dramatic transformations to add depth to her characters. This included getting 30 pounds heavier for her Oscar-winning performance in Monster (2003) and, later, equally tough physical training for Mad Max: Fury Road (2015). For Tully, in 2018, Charlize again transformed into a struggling mother by gaining 50 pounds. She described her intense cravings and subsequent mood changes as challenging but rewarding.
