Is it splitsville for Charlize Theron and Sean Penn on SA movie set?


Cape Town – An inside source has revealed to Channel24 that there’s trouble in paradise on the South African set of Sean Penn’s latest film.

The Hollywood A-lister is reportedly acting out on set after Charlize Theron allegedly declined his marriage proposal.

Rumours from the set are flying around that Sean and Charlize are no longer an item.

The 54-year-old actor is directing his 39-year-old girlfriend in the upcoming movie, The Last Face, and their strong personalities are allegedly clashing on set, BangShowbiz reported.

A source told OK! magazine: "In everyday life, Sean is pretty easy going, but he turns into a completely different person on set, especially when he's directing. He's a perfectionist and has been very critical of her acting. It's driving her insane.

"Charlize has said she feels like nothing she does is good enough for Sean on this film. He constantly has her redo her scenes, critiquing how she delivers her lines or saying she isn't bringing enough passion."

Charlize and Sean were first seen together back in January during a Hawaiian vacation.
