Bombshell centers on a group of female employees at Fox News who take on a toxic male culture, leading to the downfall of media mogul Roger Ailes, according to an official synopsis.
The film was directed by Jay Roach, who said of the film’s character inspirations: ‘These were women who would not have necessarily called themselves feminists and sometimes even were anti-politically correct.’
He added: ‘And they ended up being the people that spoke up.’
Bombshell also stars Margot Robbie, Jon Lithgow, Kate McKinnon and Allison Janney.
Theron, who also serves as a producer for the film, told Entertainment Weekly of her experience preparing for it: ‘All of my other issues that I have with that world, I had to put all of that aside because the story is worth telling.’
‘It doesn’t have anything to do with how I feel about Fox News or how I feel about Republicans. That’s not what this film is about at all.’

Theron spent hours in the makeup chair in order to transform into journalist Megyn Kelly for the finished product.
She also took the time to study footage of Kelly, especially her unscripted interviews.
‘She’s pretty hard, and she comes across a certain way that feels very strong and very much like you can’t break through any of that wall,’ she said.
‘But there are moments where you watch her – especially after [the events in Bombshell] take place – where you can see some of her vulnerability.’
Bombshell is set for release on Dec. 20, 2019.
