ACADEMY Award winning actress Charlize Theron visited Hampstead to answer questions on her latest flick.
The 33-year-old beauty joined director Guillermo Arriaga at Hampstead's Everyman cinema on Tuesday to offer lucky guests a sneak preview of their new film The Burning Plain.
The pair then stayed to answer questions on the film, which is the directing debut of Mr Arriaga - screen writer of acclaimed films Babel and 21 Grams.
