Short description

400 years into the future, disease has wiped out the majority of the world's population, except one walled city, Bregna, ruled by a congress of scientists. When Æon Flux, the top operative in the underground 'Monican' rebellion, is sent on a mission to kill a government leader, she uncovers a world of secrets.

What's left behind the scenes

The first news about the upcoming project appeared in 2003. At that time, Michelle Rodriguez was considered the most suitable candidate for the lead role.
Filming of the movie began in August 2004 in Berlin and finished at the end of the same year.
The film is based on the events of the eponymous animated series that aired on "MTV" in the 1990s.
The lead actress, Charlize Theron, received an eight-figure fee for her work on the film. Interestingly, the contract was concluded even before Charlize's victory in the 2004 Oscar race.
During filming, Charlize Theron seriously injured her neck, forcing a month-long suspension of work on the film. Upon returning to the set, Charlize insisted on continuing to perform all the stunts herself. It is interesting that Ms. Theron's contract included a special clause regarding the use of stunt doubles, but the actress wanted to take the risk.
To learn the art of ski jumping, Charlize enlisted the help of Terry Bartlett's circus group.
