In an interview with People, Henry elaborated, "Let me tell you, she leads by example. She's truly a rare find in Tinseltown." He likened her to a female Tom Cruise, not only as an actress but also as a producer who is invariably the first to arrive on set in the morning and the last to leave at night. "She's actively creating what she envisions, diving into the action scenes and choreographies with relentless enthusiasm," he added.

Henry further acknowledged that both Charlize and Tom occupy unique spaces in the cinematic landscape. "They embody the spirit of old-school movie stars, a dwindling breed in today's industry," he remarked.

Interestingly, despite her formidable presence in Hollywood, Charlize Theron recently opened up about her children's lukewarm interest in her acting career.
