In her upcoming film, the gorgeous Halle Berry will be playing “a Jewish woman in the 1930s.”
Yes, you read that correctly.
According to Indie Wire, the Academy Award-winning actress will be assuming a Jewish role in the upcoming film “Cloud Atlas,” which is based on the complex David Mitchell novel of the same name.
Berry will play the Jewish role for director Tom Tykwer’s section of the flick, which follows six plot threads across time—a 19th century notary on a Pacific expedition, a bisexual musician in the 1930s, a female journalist embroiled in a thriller in 1970s California, an aging publisher in London in the present, a clone in a futuristic dystopia, and a Pacific survivor in a post-apocalyptic world.
“Cloud Atlas” is slated to hit theaters next fall.
