“I’m always so interested when we can have some kind of transparency of what it really is to be a woman in all of the complexities, all of the fucked-up-ness, all of the messiness. That’s when we’re telling the truth of who women really are,” said Charlize Theron to the audience at an October 19 SAG screening of her new film “Bombshell,” which tells the story of the Fox News sexual harassment scandal. Above, watch Theron discuss the film alongside co-stars Nicole Kidman and John Lithgow, director Jay Roach and screenwriter Charles Randolph.

We get to say that word.
