It looks like Charlize Theron could end up starring in Seth MacFarlane's new feature film comedy, a western called A Million Ways to Die in the West. She's currently in final negotiations, and if cast she'll star alongside MacFarlane in the film.
The movie has been described as a Blazing Saddles-style comedy that will include contemporary humor, "with one undercurrent being just how dangerous and painful life really was in the late 1800s."
The story "follows a sheepish farmer who chickens out of a gunfight and sees his girlfriend leave him. When he meets the wife of a notorious outlaw who offers to teach him how to shoot, the farmer at first sees a chance to win back his love but slowly falls for the woman. Complications ensue when the outlaw returns and reclaims his woman."
