The 37-year-old actor and recording artist revealed that he and Charlize, 40, became buddies on set, and that he may have used his eight-year-old daughter to get the beauty's phone number.

After 'flirting with her a little bit,' he managed to get her cell phone number, he said. "We are trying to get the kids together, have a little fun," he explained.

The eighth instalment in the series that stars Vin Diesel and Jordana Brewster is slated to serve as the first of a trilogy set around Theron's character, Cipher.
