Watch The Theron is back and ready to catch up on what we've missed! First up: 2019's animated film The Addams Family! After establishing our history with the Addams Family (across its many incarnations), we talk about whether this particular version is as good as it could be and we wonder what its goals are. We talk about how the cast would be great in a live action version, and wonder if that's why they were cast in these (voice only) roles. We wonder if Charlize was given any motivation for her character, and we talk about how hard it must be for anyone playing Morticia to not simply channel Anjelica Huston. We pitch some ideas for how the film's two main storylines could have crossed over. We talk about the animation style and character designs. We look ahead to The Addams Family 2.

The future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe may be a bit hazy, but what's perfectly clear is that Charlize Theron was in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness! Dropped into a credits scene, Charlize takes the role of Clea, who seems to know the titular Doctor Strange very well. Who is she? What role could she play? Why did Marvel use her now? We return to Watch The Theron for a quick episode to catch up on her role in the MCU and how she may be used down the road. We also discuss Charlize's recent history (and near future?) of acting exclusively in established franchises, how her entrance into the MCU is new ground for us, and whether Marvel would have been better served to have saved her casting for the seemingly inevitable reboot of the universe in the next few years.

Charlize is back! Well, she never left, but Watch The Theron is back for her newest movie: The School for Good and Evil, which is a very, very long movie. It's not made for our demographic, but Charlize is having fun (hooray!), so we try to have some fun, too. We talk about how it feels like The School for Good and Evil is a TV series condensed down to movie length, discuss the complicated adaptation backstory, and admire how good this movie looks and how good the effects are. We also wonder... Will there be sequels? Where did this movie come from? Why aren't the nepo babies of the fairy tale world more defined/dressed? We compare this movie to Snow White and the Huntsman, debate whether or not the title is a spoiler, and preview upcoming episodes of Watch The Theron -- covering both movies we've missed and Charlize's upcoming projects (which are, weirdly, all sequels). Joey explains a Netflix disc "scam." Mike stereotypes witches' names.

We’re closing out the year with a brand new Charlize Theron movie, Bombshell, and our second episode of Watch The Theron in 2019! We are joined by Cara Gael O’Regan of the Wistful Thinking Podcast to talk about all things Megyn Kelly, Gretchen Carlson, and more. In this episode, we talk about the radical physical transformation (and makeup effects) for Charlize Theron (as well as many of the film’s other actors), the adaptation of a real-life saga, and the movie’s utter determination to not stick to a story or style.

It's been a long time, but we're finally back on Watch The Theron! It may not be called Flarsky anymore (bad decision, movie studio), but Long Shot was worth the wait. In this episode, we talk about where the movie falls on the list of all-time great rom-coms, discuss the Charlize/Seth Rogen relationship, and yearn for a world where Charlize Theron is our president. We also look ahead to what's next for Charlize, and discuss how she'll fit into the ever-evolving world of the Fast and the Furious! Email us: watch@cageclub.me

After 50 episodes discussing our favorite (and least favorite) moments in Charlize Theron's filmography, it's time for the Chrome Teeth: The Charlize Theron Awards! We're joined by fan (and new friend) from halfway around the world, Amelia Crawford, to discuss the highs and lows of Charlize's filmography. We'll give our picks and then hand it over to Amelia to find out who you, the listener, voted on! So take an ice bath, shave your head, and grab your chrome teeth, because it's time to celebrate Charlize Theron! Email us: watch@cageclub.me

We've never done this kind of episode for one of our podcasts before, and while the name is clunky, the content is A+. This episode serves as a Letterboxd countdown and overall reflection on the Watch The Theron podcast. We're officially declaring the best and the worst parts of Charlize's filmography next week for the Chrome Teeth (voting may still be open... I'm writing this from the past!), but today we're ranking Charlize Theron's films, from 45 to 1. Play along at home and let us know your order! Email us: watch@cageclub.me

#WatchTheTheron officially wraps up Phase I in two weeks with the Chrome Teeth (voting is still open!), so it's time to reveal what we're doing as a follow-up to our Charlize Theron podcast. Today, we're announcing #HANX for the Memories and #CruiseClub! This episode's a quickie, but we're back next week with a reflection on #WatchTheTheron (as well as our rankings of all of Charlize's films), then back a week later for the Chrome Teeth! Here's your homework: go vote (again!) for the Chrome Teeth, then subscribe to #HANX and #CruiseClub. Our journeys begin in January!

Before we close up shop on #WatchTheTheron, we have to take a quick detour for a very special Charlize Theron Clip Show! Recorded live at Camp CageClub, Joey and Mike were joined by Chris Podcasts, Brian Rodriguez, and Joe Two to talk about 30 clips of Charlize Theron cobbled together on a YouTube playlist. How many of them do we watch in their entirety? Are any of the SNL clips funny? And will anything be as good as Brandon Flowers' music video for Crossfire? Listen and find out! Vote on the Chrome Teeth at www.cageclub.me/chrome Email us: watch@cageclub.me

We've made our way through 46 episodes of #WatchTheTheron, and now it's time to honor the very best (and the very worst) of what Charlize Theron's career has to offer with the Chrome Teeth! Voting is open now and will run for three weeks. Vote early, vote often! Listen to our episode for the nominations (and a bit of our takes on the nominees), then head here to cast your ballots. Seriously, vote as many times as you want. Rig the election. Do whatever you want. Just show up and vote! Vote at www.cageclub.me/chrome Email us: watch@cageclub.me

Tully, like Charlize Theron in the film, pulls double duty: it reunites Charlize with Jason Reitman and Diablo Cody and closes the book on the first phase of #WatchTheTheron! If you don't know anything about Tully, stop reading this and go watch it. Joining us to talk about this surprisingly unusual (and nearly entirely great) film is Jordan Polan-Clarke of the Wistful Thinking podcast! We cover Charlize's transformation for the role, Mackenzie Davis as an all-time great #WatchTheTheron character, and -- of course -- Carly Rae Jepsen. Email us: watch@cageclub.me

Gringo is a weird little movie. Gringo also happens to be the first Charlize Theron movie released since #WatchTheTheron began, which is cause for a strange kind of celebration, as it marks the beginning of the end of "Phase I" of this podcast. To commemorate the occasion, we brought in special guest Nick Jenkins of the Reel Bad podcast to talk about a movie that's a bit too well made to ever find its way onto his podcast... or could it? Email us: watch@cageclub.me

We may talk about The Fate of the Furious every eight months (or so) on 2 Fast 2 Forever, but today's a very special occasion: we're talking about it on #WatchTheTheron, too! To talk about The Fate of the Furious, we had to bring in none other than our (other) resident Fast and Furious expert, Joe Two, as we discussed the film, whether or not Charlize is a good villain, and who her character might actually, really, truly be. Email us: watch@cageclub.me

Along with Mad Max: Fury Road, Atomic Blonde was, perhaps, the main reason why #WatchTheTheron was created in the first place. Atomic Blonde is sleek, stylish and sexy, showcasing many of Charlize's talents throughout the movie, as she kicks ass and looks great doing it. On this episode, we welcome in special guest Nicole Sweeney of Snark Squad to talk about Charlize as a badass, John Goodman as a hardass, and other stuff that doesn't have to do with asses. Email us: watch@cageclub.me

Kubo and the Two Strings is Charlize Theron's second animated film. Unlike Astro Boy, however, her role in Kubo is actually important to the story and interesting to talk about! On this episode, we welcome back "Mad" Holly Gore (last heard on the wildly divisive Waking Up in Reno episode). Holly loves Japan -- and good movies! -- so we thought that Kubo and the Two Strings would be right up her alley. Were we right? Email us: watch@cageclub.me

The Last Face is widely considered one of the worst and most pretentious films ever made. What a way to wind down Watch The Theron! In this episode, we try to figure out what the movie was thinking, whether or not the movie suffers from white savior syndrome, and whether or not there's any redeeming qualities in this movie. Email us: watch@cageclub.me

The Huntsman: Winter's War marks Charlize Theron's first sequel, and also begs one question: Why? Why this movie? Why this franchise? Though this movie was far less successful at the box office (and faced much harsher reviews from critics), it's probably not that far off from the first one in terms of quality or overall production value. However, with fewer than ten Charlize Theron movies left, it's a bit of a disappointment when we get to a movie where she misses an eighty minute chunk in the middle. Email us: watch@cageclub.me

We should have known that the journey across the wasteland of Charlize Theron's filmography wouldn't be easy, but at long last we've made it to Valhalla: Mad Max: Fury Road. (It turns out that all we needed to get through was a little guzzoline.) In this episode, we talk about why this movie should be considered one of the finest action films of all-time, as well as the film's exhilarating action scenes and its complex gender politics and dynamics.

It's 2015. Fresh off the success of Gone Girl, another Gillian Flynn adaptation, Dark Places, is released. That's where the similarities end. After David Fincher's adaptation of Gone Girl grossed more than $360 million worldwide in theaters, Dark Places was relegated straight to VOD and was met by "generally unfavorable reviews."

A Million Ways to Die in the West brings us back to a bygone era of Charlize Theron movies, and not in a good way. Like both Woody Allen movies we've covered on this podcast, A Million Ways to Die in the West seems like an ego-boosting fest for Seth MacFarlane. Email us: watch@cageclub.me
