We’d knit. There are photos of Nick, all muscular in leather pants with his head shaved, knitting a scarf. He made a ton of stuff. He made all our Christmas presents. I think Tom got in on it. But he dropped a lot of stitches. Not a world class knitter in my opinion.

– Charlize Theron in Empire, June 2015.

I’d often go to yoga and – you’ll laugh – Charlize Theron taught me how to knit. So there was a lot of variety. There are even a few photos of me in leather pants and war paint, knitting. I’d get really mad if I lost my place… These days, I don’t even have to look down anymore. By the end of the year I’d made some knitted Christmas presents. And: I was much better than Tom Hardy.

– Nicholas Hoult brags about his knitting prowess. *g*

I so love how all the cast got into ‘arts & crafts’ on the set of Mad Max Fury Road. It should be a special behind the scenes featurette!

(Photos thanks to fangirlingicizing – I love that Tom did get a few moments worth for his beard in the film. Nothing to do with knitting, though.)

Crying a little because I’m not watching this movie right now.

I’m not really a fan of either Kirsten or Charlize…mostly because the films they’ve been in, in the past, just haven’t been my thing. HOWEVER, the whole Snow White in armour thing had me SO I WENT TO SEE THIS TODAY, and it was really good. 😀

Snow White was ok, Queen Ravenna was awesome, the dwarves? OMG THE DWARVES. <3 The Huntsman was interesting. Uh… who else. Actually, you know, I don’t really know why they put “and the Huntsman” up there in the title, other than to try and snag a larger male audience. Really, I would title it “Snow White and the Queen” or something. Because, y’know, that’s what it’s actually about.
