Halle Berry Says Ryan Reynolds Never Asked Her to Play Storm in ‘Deadpool’


Halle Berry said that Blake Lively asked if she’d play X-Men favorite Storm in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine,’ but Ryan Reynolds never called

Berry played Storm in several X-Men movies alongside Hugh Jackman, who reprises his role as Wolverine in the new Marvel blockbuster. Channing Tatum also makes a cameo as X-Men character Gambit, who he had long been attached to play in a movie before Disney acquired Fox and scrapped the project. It’s Deadpool — and Hugh, [director Shawn Levy] and me — saying farewell to a place and an era that literally made us,” Reynolds shared via Instagram in July.
