The actress revealed she drew inspiration for her Evil Queen character from Jack Nicholson!

“I was watching television one night and The Shining came on and I was like, ‘Oh my god, that’s is, she’s Jack Nicholson in The Shining,’ " she recalled. "She’s locked in her hotel castle going slowly crazy. Not at all am I going to take credit that that’s the performance I gave, but it was definitely very inspiring for me.”

And Charlize was also inspired by her co-star Kristen Stewart.

“I think she’s incredible and she’s been an actress that I’ve been watching for awhile, and she didn’t disappoint," Charlize shared. "She’s amazing, absolutely just a joy to work with."

It sounds like Charlize has a lot to be thankful for!
