Charlize Theron and Taron Egerton recall taking baths next to each other
In a recent interview with PEOPLE magazine, Charlize Theron recalled taking baths next to her co-star Taron Egerton. The duo recently starred in the film “Apex.” At one point during the interview, Egerton said, “Our one little bit of luxury that we had was we each had a bath.” Pointing toward Theron, he asked, “Do you remember that? We had a little bath each.”
Theron confirmed, saying it was a “little hot tub.” Egerton went on to explain how they spent so much time in water during filming that when they weren’t shooting, and the sun was high in the sky, they would feel sick, so they relaxed in a hot bath. Theron chimed in, saying the experience was “amazing.”
Egerton also shared more about the experience, saying, “And Charlize would kind of feed me … It’s not jerky… biltong. Traditional South African biltong. And we would sit and gnaw on biltong to try and keep in our sinewy climbers’ physiques.”
Theron then added that they were “forced” to sit in the bathtub next to each other. She said, “We couldn’t be like, ‘Can you move my tub a little bit over there?’ But it was lovely. And then we would go back, and he’d tie me to him, and then he’d drag me through some dirt, and it was just another day at the job.”
