She joined  the Joffrey Ballet School in New York, where she trained as a ballet dancer until a knee injury closed this career path.  In 2008 as Theron recalled:

She went to New York for three days to model, and then She spent a winter in New York in a friend’s windowless basement apartment. She was broke, she was taking class at the Joffrey Ballet, and her knees gave out. She realized She  couldn’t dance anymore, and She went into a major depression. Her mom came over from South Africa and said, ‘Either she  figure out what to do next or she goes back  home, because she can sulk in South Africa’.

Theron when she was 19 flew to Los Angeles, on a one-way ticket her mother bought for her, intending to work in the film industry. During the first  months there, Theron  went to a Hollywood Boulevard bank to cash a cheque her mother had sent to help with the rent. After the teller refused to cash it she  engaged in a shouting match with him.  When agent John Crosby who was waiting for her  show  this, talent he  handed her his business card.  Subsequently he introduced her to casting agents and also an acting school.  She later fired him as her manager after he kept sending her scripts for films similar to Showgirls and Species.

After  Theron spent several months in the city she  made her film debut with a non-speaking role in the horror film Children of the Corn III: Urban Harvest (1995). Her first speaking role was that of a hitwoman in 2 Days in the Valley (1996). Although it was a small role, a lingerie-clad Theron was prominently featured on the movie poster, and film offers for hot-chick parts quickly followed. But Theron turned them down. “A lot of people were saying, ‘You should just hit while the iron’s hot,’” she remarked. “But playing the same part over and over doesn’t leave you with any longevity. And I knew it was going to be harder for me, because of what I look like, to branch out to different kinds of roles.”
