Charlize Theron has done it again, by slaying an action movie at age 44. 'The Old Guard' on Netflix is one of the hottest things to watch right now and has been in the top ten lists since its release.

Also starring KiKi Layne, Matthias Schoenaerts, Marwan Kenzari, Luca Marinelli, Harry Melling, Van Veronica Ngo, and Chiwetel Ejiofor; 'The Old Guard' has received positive feedback for the story, acting and especially for Theron's portrayal of a slow-aging crime-fighting heroine.

The movie is based on a comic written by Greg Rucka and illustrated by Leandro Fernandez...

A couple of days ago, Theron took to Instagram to post a beautiful picture of her sitting on the edge of a stark, barren landscape in the twilight, and captioned it as, "Wow...just, wow. Thank you all for making this weekend such a great one. The love you’ve shown me and #TheOldGuard is truly insane. Been reading all your comments with a gigantic smile on my face - appreciate you all SO much."

The post has already generated 267,000-plus likes and counting and fans are appreciating the movie likewise.

Celebs joined the congratulatory bandwagon too.

Actress Melanie Griffith, who is Dakota Johnson's mother, wrote, "I watched your movie #theoldguard last night and LOVED it! You are eternal and such a fine actress. Thank you Charlize !!♥️♥️♥️"

January Jones sent in her love, while Michelle Pfeiffer also chimed in with, "Watching this weekend. Can’t wait!".

Yet another fan wrote, "You are truly a force of nature!!! Congrats on the great movie. Hope we get a sequel..."

Theron also shared plenty more behind-the-scene pictures, including a selfie taken with co-actress Van Veronica Ngo who plays Quynh to Theron's Andy in the movie. Fans were thrilled to bits and showed it by liking the picture to a 404,000 count.

One wrote, "Quynh's storyline was unbelievably horrendous, I need to see where it ends up after the ending" while another deduced, "She’s going to be the bad guy in the next one right? ?"...

Don't know about bad guys, but Theron sure did some "bad" training for the movie...

Of course, by now, Charlize Theron is quite the old hand at action movies.

Think 'Hancock' with Will Smith, 'Mad Max: Fury Road' with Tom Hardy and even others like 'Atomic Blonde'.

Running amok in the desert should be a normal day of shooting for her, and this time, she even got to keep her hair.

She celebrated the anniversary of 'Mad Max: Fury Road' by posting a throwback pic of hers minus hair, and captioning it as, "5 years ago, Mad Max: Fury Road was released. As you know by now, it was a grueling, intense shoot but my god was it all worth it. Went back into the vault to find some of my favorite moments behind the scenes..."

Here's Theron in a bikini, as a treat...
