Showing a dizzying new side of herself, Charlize Theron packs a hilariously vain punch in Paramount's newly-released trailer for its forthcoming dramedy "Young Adult."

In the just-unveiled Jason Reitman directed clip, Charlize's character as alcoholic author Mavis Gary returns to her quaint Midwest hometown.

Hoping to reconnect with her old flame, Theron is met with a serious roadblock - her former high school beau is now married with children.

Written by "Juno" mastermind Diablo Cody, "Young Adult" co-stars include Elizabeth Reaser, Patrick Wilson, Patton Oswalt and Steven Wothe Jr. with a release date set for December 16, 2011.
