Ah, OK! magazine. Your source to unfounded celebrity news and entertainment at the dentist.
A recent rumor started by an OK! source is circulating, naming Charlize Theron to play Carol Danvers in Captain Marvel. I assume they use the similar chain-smoking, bozo-saying sources that John Mulaney warned me the New York Post uses, because the source is really pulling something out of nothing with this Theron choice.
As quoted in OK! via Yahoo:
The duo are even hoping to work together on Captain Marvel, the comic giant’s upcoming first female-led superhero film. The source said: “Marvel has been courting Angie [Angelina Jolie] to direct the project and Charlize is a clear fan favorite for the starring role. If Charlize were to get the part, Angie would almost certainly sign on to work with her new pal.”
Possibly the least founded rumor ever, although, you have to applaud the kid-like rationalization: they’re friends, Jolie is maybe gonna direct, clearly the part would go to Theron! Thank you source, Hollywood will now go to you for all its casting needs.
