Hollywood icon Halle Berry opened up about a memorable moment from the sets of her upcoming film Crime 101, where co-star Chris Hemsworth earned her lifelong admiration. Speaking during a promotional event at CinemaCon in Las Vegas, the Oscar-winning actress revealed that Hemsworth “stood up” for her during a critical moment on set—an act that left a lasting impression on her.
While Berry chose not to disclose specific details, she emphasized the emotional impact of the gesture. “He didn’t have to do it, and yet he did. He stood up for me in a moment during the shoot. From that point, I knew I’d be a fan of Chris Hemsworth for the rest of my life,” she shared.
The chemistry between Berry and Hemsworth will be seen in Crime 101, where Hemsworth plays a jewel thief and Berry portrays an insurance broker. The film, directed by Bart Layton, also stars Mark Ruffalo, Barry Keoghan, and Monica Barbaro.
Hemsworth had earlier mentioned in an interview with E! News that he was both excited and intimidated to work with Berry. “I’ve admired her work for years. Standing opposite her in a scene was surreal,” he said.
As the release date for Crime 101 draws closer, fans are eager to witness this unique pairing in action—backed by a powerful real-life moment of respect and camaraderie behind the scenes.
