Next up for Charlize Theron is the highly anticipated The Road, based off of Cormac McCarthy’s hugely successful (and extremely dark) book of the same name. I’ve been waiting for this movie for a loooong time. I read the book, and still say it’s one of my favorite books I’ve ever read. The Road, which looks just as haunting and creepy as the book. It was probably the best book I read in 2008, and I can’t wait for the movie. But with that said, it looks like it is going to be insanely intense. EW is calling it “the most important movie of 2009″.

Based on Cormac McCarthy’s best-selling and Pulitzer Prize winning novel, “The Road is the epic post-apocalyptic tale of a journey taken by a father and his young son across a barren landscape that was blasted by an unnamed cataclysm that destroyed civilization and most life on earth.

Charlize Theron tells Usmagazine.com that Salma Hayek had a “beautiful wedding” to French tycoon Francois-Henri Pinault Saturday in Venice, Italy.

“I’m really happy for them and they’re just a beautiful couple,” Theron told Us Monday at a Film Society of Lincoln Center event honoring Tom Hanks in NYC. “We’re really good friends, and it was really a celebration of love — that’s what it was really about.”

The bride, Theron added, looked “gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.”

The sweetest moment?

“Everything,” said Theron, who attended the ceremony with her beau Stuart Townsend. “Everything was gorgeous.”

Hayek and Pinault first wed at City Hall in Paris on Valentine’s Day. They welcomed a daughter, Valentina, in September 2007.
