“Hancock” stars Will Smith, Charlize Theron and Jason Bateman talk about why they wanted to be in the movie and how the film finds the human being in a superhero.

But Jason lets it spill that he tried to drag out his sex scene with Charlize Theron. Wonder if she noticed? Will says he found it hard to concentrate while shooting with fans screaming at him on Hollywood Blvd. Duh.

As for superpowers, Will wants Hancock’s ability to drink like a fish. Charlize and Jason just want to want to be able to fly.

We’ll like both, please.

Charlize Theron is in the mood to talk. This month the notoriously private star talks to ELLE about marriage, babies, her body and why she won’t become another Hollywood party girl.

In the new issue of ELLE, on sale tomorrow, Charlize reveals how it’s her long-term partner, Irish actor Stuart Townsend who has been pushing her to open up about their idyllic, 7-year relationship, and the reasons why she’ll never marry him. ‘ I want to know that I wake up every morning because I want to, not because a pieces of paper says so’ she reveals. However he does call her his wife and she does wear a gold band of forget-me knots on her wedding finger that Townsend gave her ‘ I wear it all the time…it signifies my commitment to him.’ She will be having babies with him though, ‘ I be delighted if I found out I was pregnant tomorrow. I know I’m going to be a mother.. and Stuart will be our baby’s father.’

Charlize Theron stars in Hancock, released in cinemas on Wednesday. The stunning actress tells Kate Whiting what drew her to the film about an unconventional superhero, and what it was like working with co-star Will Smith

Summer wouldn’t be the same without the obligatory action blockbusters competing for box-office ratings, yet it’s rare to find an Oscar-winning actress and an Oscar-nominated actor sharing top billing on one such “popcorn� movie.

But then Hancock, starring Charlize Theron and Will Smith, is no ordinary action adventure – it’s a superhero film with a difference.

“I think this will be the craziest ride an audience has ever had,� says Charlize, with a wry smile.

“I have been in this business for 14 years and I walked out of the theatre after a screening and told my manager that this was ‘original’. I do not throw that word around. I have never seen anything like this. We took a genre that audiences are quite familiar with and did something unique.�

“ARE you flirting with me? I’m taken. I’m in a relationship. Back off, lady…â€� teased South African-born beauty Charlize Theron in a recent interview in London to promote her latest movie Hancock (which she stars alongside Will Smith and Jason Bateman).

The 33-year-old former fashion model, currently engaged to Irish actor Stuart Townsend, was responding to a question as to whether she enjoys the physical aspect of the acting, especially during the fight scenes in the comedy/drama/action Hancock, directed by Peter Berg.

“With my background of growing up on stage as a ballerina, I have always enjoyed being in a form of physical performance to tell stories — through body movements than words. It’s great to be able to continue doing that,� she said.

From a casual viewing of the marketing material for “Hancock,” Sony’s upcoming Will Smith comic thriller, I hardly knew that Charlize Theron was even in the movie. Our crack reporter Chris Lee turned up at an early screening and offers this assessment:

“At an early screening of ‘Hancock’ at the Grove last week, Will Smith’s performance as an alcoholic superhero with a bad attitude and a mounting public relations crisis had the packed theater alternately chuckling and wide-eyed. ‘Hancock’s’ third-billed costar, Charlize Theron, on the other hand, had everyone–high school students, foreign tourists, Sony executives–literally gasping with surprise.

The Dish Rag talked with Charlize Theron recently about her new summer film, “Hancock,” starring Will Smith, the superpowers she’d love to have in real life, her beauty secrets, and what it’s really like to be dubbed a Hollywood sex symbol.

DR: Are you a superhero in “Hancock?”

CT: Well, I think we’ve tried to make people believe many different things, and I guess it’s pretty obvious that we’re trying to keep some things a secret. I just hope people aren’t expecting some crazy surprise. I think what we’re trying to hold onto is what I loved about the material, which was just a chemistry between two characters that I haven’t seen before.

Obviously, it’s a conflicted relationship because she’s married and she has a stepson and she’s kind of created the perfect family. But it really is more about a woman being stuck in two worlds.

Photos of Charlize’s appearances at the ‘Hancock’ press conference and premiere in Moscow yesterday are now available in the gallery.

There’s never a dull moment when US funnyman Will Smith is around - as the fun-loving actor demonstrated at the London premiere of his latest comedy flick Hancock. Taking a hands on approach to the red carpet duties he was sharing with co-star Charlize Theron, the actor ensured there were laughs aplenty at the Leicester Square screening on Wednesday.

“I was thinking about wearing Hancock’s uniform, but it was a little tight and I thought it would be rather embarrassing,” quipped the star, who dons an all-leather ensemble for his role as the down-and-out superhero in the movie. “I thought I’d just keep it simple and sexy,” he added.

It was a dress code Charlize had clearly opted for too. The blonde was chic in an elegant black number.

Meanwhile, the former Fresh Prince star gave an insight into his always-chipper demeanor. “My life is exactly how I want it,” he revealed. “So I couldn’t even imagine wanting a super power!”
