Halle Berry Boards 'John Wick' Franchise In Mystery Role

The rumors are true! Halle Berry has been cast in third and likely final installment of the Keanu Reeves-led franchise 'John Wick 3: Parabellum', which has already started filming and is scheduled for release on May 17, 2019. Read details beneath:

The Hollywood Reporter: Halle Berry has signed on to star opposite Keanu Reeves in John Wick: Chapter 3, the latest installment in Liongate’s action series.

Director Chad Stahelski, who oversaw the mayhem in the first two movies, will be back behind the camera for Chapter 3.

The story picks up after the events of Chapter 2, which finds Wick, a former assassin who tried and failed to live the quiet life, with a $14 million price tag on his head and an army of bounty-hunting killers on his trail. After killing a member of the shadowy international assassin’s guild, the High Table, John Wick is "excommunicado," but the world’s most ruthless hit men and women await his every turn.

Berry’s character details are being kept secret, but sources say she will not be the film’s villain.

Derek Kolstad, the writing team of Chris Collins and Marc Abrams, and Shay Hatten penned the script. Thunder Road Pictures’ Basil Iwanyk and Erica Lee are producing in association with 87Eleven Productions.

Berry, repped by WME and Management 360, last co-starred in the comic-book action pic Kingsman: The Golden Circle.

The actress on Monday shared an Instagram post confirming her stay in the Continental Hotel, the film's hotel for assassins. "It's a date. 5.17.19," Berry said in reference to John Wick: Chapter 3's release date.

It's a date. 5.17.19

Halle Berry Circling 'Jagged Edge' Remake At Sony Pictures

'Jagged Edge', the 1985 thriller starring Glenn Close and Jeff Bridges, is getting a remake courtesy of Sony Pictures and according to Deadline, Halle Berry is at the center of the new film, which is a priority and is currently looking for a writer. Read the report below:

Halle Berry At Center Of ‘Jagged Edge’ Remake At Sony Pictures

Sony Pictures is in the early stages of mounting a remake of the 1985 thriller Jagged Edge, as a star vehicle for Halle Berry. The effort is being led by Steven Bersch, the Sony Worldwide Acquisitions Group head who took over the genre arm Screen Gems. This one could very well be a standard Sony release, but they’re still working that out. The project is a priority and the studio has begun the search for the right writer to draft the new version.

Matti Leshem and Doug Belgrad will produce it.

Scott Strauss will oversee for the studio.

Directed by Richard Marquand from a Joe Eszterhas script, the original starred Glenn Close, Jeff Bridges and Robert Loggia, latter of whom got an Oscar nomination. In the original, a San Francisco heiress is brutally murdered in her remote beach house. Her dashing newspaper publisher husband Jack is accused of committing the gruesome crime. He hires lawyer Teddy Barnes to defend him, and their chemistry spills into an affair. Even though the lawyer is falling in love, can’t shake the feeling that something isn’t quite right with the case, with the killer sending anonymous notes pecked out on an old typewriter. Is Jack the key to a happy future for the lawyer if she can get him acquitted in a courtroom, or is he a sociopath? The original was released when sexually charged whodunits were the rage. With TV minting money relaunching classic series like Roseanne, refashioning 80s concepts for price-minded updates seems a clever idea.

Weimaraner Republic Pictures’ Leshem has had success in female-driven thrillers, and Belgrad as an exec supervised the sleeper shark hit The Shallows, which made for an easy team up on this.

Berry was last seen in Kingsman: Golden Circle and Kidnap, and starred in the X-Men franchise and won her Oscar for Monster’s Ball. She’s repped by Mamagement 360 and WME.
