Charlize Theron has been tipped to play Anna Nicole Smith in a film about her life. The actress is the first choice to star as the Playboy Playmate who married an 89-year-old oil billionaire and died aged just 39 last week. A source revealed, "You couldn't make up a life story like Anna's. Studios are falling over themselves to pay tribute to an incredible woman. There are a number of actresses earmarked to play Anna, with Charlize the favourite." Charlize won an Oscar in 2004 for her portrayal of US serial killer Aileen Wuornos in
Monster.
Anna Nicole died last Thursday, after being found unconscious in Hollywood's Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.
