Halle Berry, who as the character Jinx Johnson famously strolled out of the sea to join forces with James Bond in 2002’s Die Another Day, is about to step into another super-spy franchise. The actress is in talks to play a CIA head opposite Taron Egerton in Kingsman 2, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
Director Matthew Vaughn is currently assembling the elements for the sequel to his surprise hit Kingsman: The Secret Service, which grossed more than $414 million worldwide when it was released by Fox in 2015.
Berry, who is repped by CAA and Management 360, will next be seen in the thriller Kidnap, whose release got caught up in the Relativity bankruptcy proceedings but is currently scheduled to open May 13.
