Halle Berry Says Confronting Bryan Singer on X-Men Set Was a Career High

She calls the on-set rebuke a career high point during an Entertainment Weekly interview.

Overview

  • Berry recalled telling Singer “where to go and how to get there,” describing the moment as one of her greatest days on a set.
  • She said cast and crew asked her to speak up because they believed she would, adding that the director was “wronging the entire crew” and “that guy deserved it.”
  • Singer’s reputation has been marred by long-reported allegations of sexual misconduct, which he denies, and accounts of erratic behavior during X-Men productions.
  • Previous reporting on X2 detailed on-set turmoil, including a botched stunt that injured Hugh Jackman, as part of broader concerns about Singer’s leadership.
  • Berry said she will not appear in the Russo brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday on Dec. 18, 2026, as several original X-Men actors return, and a separate X-Men reboot is in development under Jake Schreier.
