Halle Berry Calls Out “Shady S—” In Hollywood After Director’s Claim She Was Given Fake X-Men Script
Director Matthew Vaughn previously revealed he quit X-Men 3 after Berry was given a fake script to entice her to sign on.
An interview clip has resurfaced from last year’s New York Comic Con, where the British director claimed that he quit X-Men 3(released in 2006) after Berry was sent a fake script to entice her to sign on. The Daily Mail reports that Vaughn claims a phony script was produced to appeal to Berry with an extended story arc for her character, and he said: “I thought, if you’re going to do that to an Oscar-winning actress who plays Storm, I quit; I thought, I’m mincemeat… One of the main reasons I quit X-Men 3, and this is a true story: Hollywood is really political and odd.” Berry did appear in X-Men 3, which co-starred Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen, Kelsey Grammar, Fame Janssen and Elliot Page.
