Is X-Men star and Academy Award winner Halle Berry gearing up to make her MCU debut in Deadpool 3? The actress has shared a post to social media and it shows her once again sporting white hair…just like she did when portraying Ororo Munroe aka Storm in the X-Men series of movies. While she might have just fancied a change of hair color, with Deadpool 3 now filming and due to bring back Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, it has fans asking some pretty reasonable questions…

While nothing has been confirmed regarding Berry having a role in Deadpool 3 (fans have theorized a Storm comeback before), the sequel is likely to lean heavily into the 20th Century Fox X-Men universe as Ryan Reynolds’ Wade Wilson embarks on a road trip alongside Hugh Jackman’s Logan. Plot details remain largely unknown, but many have theorized that Deadpool 3 will include the Time Variance Authority, and finds Deadpool and Wolverine attempting to escape the Fox universe and enter the MCU.

Halle Berry portrayed the X-Men member Storm throughout the franchise, first appearing in X-Men back in 2000. Though the character was underutilized, Berry found plenty of chances to shine in the role (no, not the “toad being struck by lightning” line), playing Storm for the final time in 2014’s X-Men: Days of Future Past.

Halle Berry Will Next Team-Up With Angelina Jolie for the Action Movie Maude v Maude

Before possibly joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe and reuniting with her X-Men co-star Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry will next team-up with fellow Academy Award winner and Hollywood icon Angelina Jolie for the action movie Maude v Maude. The project was announced last month, with Maude v Maude being picked up by Warner Bros. Pictures following an aggressive bidding war. While plot details for Maude v Maude remain under wraps at present, the action flick has been described as a “Bond vs. Bourne” style global action thriller. Which heavily suggests that Maude v Maude will find Berry and Jolie at each other’s throats as warring spies/secret agents/assassins. Though, the title also gives that away. Still, it certainly sounds like an exciting prospect for action fans.

Filmmaker Roseanne Liang, who is best known for the likes of the action horror outing Shadow in the Cloud and the upcoming live action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender, is on board to direct Maude v Maude with both Berry and Jolie on board to produce the project.

Alongside exchanging punches with Angelina Jolie and potentially quipping with Deadpool, Halle Berry is also set to star in the science fiction film The Mothership, which finds Berry as a single mother who discovers a strange, extraterrestrial object underneath her home, leading her and her children to embark on a race to find their husband, father, and most importantly – the truth. Berry will also set to join forces with Mark Wahlberg in the action thriller Our Man from Jersey, which finds Marky Mark starring as a construction worker who is roped into the espionage world by his former high school girlfriend.

Both The Mothership and Our Man from Jersey are due to debut on Netflix. Deadpool 3 meanwhile is scheduled to be released on November 8, 2024.
