Chris Hemsworth Says Halle Berry’s ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Question Could Get Him Fired By Marvel
Chris Hemsworth had a funny and slightly awkward TV moment thanks to Halle Berry, and the clip is now making waves online.
The story comes from recent episodes of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. First, Halle Berry appeared on the show and left a question for Hemsworth, who was set to visit later. Berry is known for playing Storm in the X-Men movies between 2000 and 2014, and fans have been talking for a while about whether she could return now that the X-Men are part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
During her interview, Berry asked Fallon to pass along a message. She said, “Why I Storm will not be in Doomsday? He knows the answer.” The comment quickly sparked curiosity because Marvel has not confirmed any casting details about the upcoming Avengers film.
When Hemsworth later appeared on the same show, Fallon played Berry’s clip for him. The actor burst out laughing and looked surprised by the question. He quickly tried to distance himself from any casting decisions. He said, “It has nothing to do with me.”
Fallon joked that Hemsworth seemed embarrassed and told him his face was turning red. Hemsworth replied, “no it’s just really hot in here.” The exchange had the audience laughing.
He then made a playful joke about the superhero powers involved. He said, “There’ll be too many storms.” Hemsworth added, “The character I play also has a weather pattern adjusting and they thought we cancel each other out and who will be the most powerful stormish person.”
The actor continued to tease the situation and hinted that Berry might be joking with him. He said, “Hey maybe it’s part of the play. Maybe she is in it or maybe she’s in the next one or maybe as I said I had nothing to do with it. I think she is trying to get me fired.”
