Halle Berry in Talks to Join KINGSMAN 2 and 3
It looks like we might get to see Julianne Moore and Halle Berry face off in the Matthew Vaughn-directed Kingsman 2. Deadline reports that Berry is in discussions to play the head of the CIA. She’s up for a two-picture deal, so if cast she will not only be in Kingsman 2, but she will also be in Kingsman 3. Yep, there’s a third film on the horizon!
Moore will be playing the film’s villain, so the two characters will most definitely be at odds in the film. Unless there’s some kind of plot twist that makes the head of the CIA a villain!
This would bring Berry back into the Fox fold as that they also produced the X-Men films in which she played Storm. This could be a great gig for her. It’s been awhile since she’s done anything awesome. The last film she was in was X-Men: Days of Future Past, but she was hardly in it. Berry most recently starred in a new thriller called Kidnap, which is scheduled to be released in May.
Vaughn wrote the script for the sequel with Jane Goldman. Taron Egerton is reprising his role from the first film. Kingsman 2 is set to be released on June 16, 2017.
