Charlize Theron—46 Years Old

Now a widely recognized actress, Charlize Theron started on various jobs before she became an actress. When the family was still in Italy, she won a one-year modeling contract in a local competition. After the deal lapsed, Charlize and her mother contacted the moving company to transfer their belongings to the US, establishing a new home in Miami and New York. She had her sights on acting, and it eventually paid off when John Crossby accidentally discovered her.

She was given a non-speaking role in Children of the Corn III: Urban Harvest, which launched her career. Theron is now regarded as one of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood, with several highly successful projects to her name. She has kept herself busy lately by producing and starring on Old Guards. The Mad Max actress is also set to reprise her role in F9, which was scheduled for release in April 2021.
