Summary
This Friday on The Run-Through, Academy Award-winning actor Halle Berry chats with Vogue’s Kiana Murden and Margaux Anbouba about Crime 101, her new thriller out on February 13. In it, Berry—appearing alongside Chris Hemsworth and Mark Ruffalo—plays Sharon Colvin, an insurance broker involved in a high-stakes heist.
Berry calls the shoot “one of the best experiences, I think, of my 30 years,” due to the great energy and professionalism on set. She also shares the stories behind some of her most iconic red carpet looks, including her custom LaQuan Smith gown for last year’s Met Gala. As for what she’s excited to wear next? Berry says that she’s a “Dior girl.”
Berry also talks about how a misdiagnosis led to her activism in the women’s health space and the launch of her healthcare startup, Respin. And on the subject of menopause, she says: “It’s nothing to be afraid of. You are your best self at this time. We’re smarter, we’re wiser. We’re like turbo versions of ourselves. That’s what I want women to know and to look forward to this time of life.”
