Halle Berry has played many fascinating roles on the silver screen throughout her career, including her beloved X-Men character Ororo Munroe, a.k.a Storm. Berry recently shared how Blake Lively, who made a surprising cameo as Ladypool in the newly released superhero movie Deadpool & Wolverine, approached her about if she would like to return as Storm in the project.


Halle Berry recently attended the premiere of her upcoming movie The Union (in which she starred alongside her co-star Mark Wahlberg), where on the red carpet, Berry spoke with Comic Book to discuss the film.

During her candid chat with the outlet, the actress also revealed that Ryan Reynolds never asked her to reprise her role as Storm from the X-Men movies to make a cameo in his latest film, Deadpool & Wolverine. The film would have reunited her with her X-Men co-star Hugh Jackman, who returned to play Wolverine.

I said, 'Yeah, if he asked me,' but he never asked me."
