Chris Hemsworth reveals why he was intimidated to work with Halle Berry

Most people get slightly intimidated when they meet someone they admire, and Chris Hemsworth is no exception, as he revealed that he was very intimidated to work with Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry in their upcoming movie, Crime 101. The actor, known primarily for his role as Thor, was speaking to E! News at the CinemaCon red carpet on Tuesday regarding his experience working with Halle Berry.

He shared with E! News that,

"I’ve admired Halle’s work for many, many years. I was honestly very intimidated to sit opposite her within a scene and try and, you know, not just be in awe of what she was doing." - Chris Hemsworth

The Thor actor continued that he loved every second of working with Halle Berry, as she made the best out of him and expressed how comfortable filming with her was.

"Certain people just bring out not just the best in you, but also sort of a comfort level, where it does feel like it’s a place to explore and it’s a place to examine different ideas and try different things. And that was the experience... I loved every second of it."

According to multiple reports, the duo was in Las Vegas with director Bart Layton last Tuesday to tease their movie Crime 101. The movie is based on the 2021 novella of the same name by Don Winslow. According to IMDb, Crime 101 is a thriller movie about a detective named Lou Lubesnick tracking down a jewel thief who follows a strict set of rules known as Crime 101.

According to multiple reports, alongside Hemsworth and Halle, other stars like Mark Ruffalo, Barry Keoghan, Monica Barbaro, Corey Hawkins, Tate Donovan, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Nick Nolte, and more are also part of the cast. The film doesn't have a release date yet.

Halle Berry also shared her experience working with Chris Hemsworth.

Halle Berry, who won the Oscar for Best Actress in 2002 for her performance in the movie Monster's Ball (2001), also shared what it was like to work with Chris Hemsworth as she appeared at the CinemaCon Red Carpet alongside co-star Chris Hemsworth.

While talking to E! News, the X-men actress praised Hemsworth as 'one of her new favorite people' and shared that there was a "moment" in the movie where he "stood up" for her that made her his "fan," though she did not share the incident she was referring to.

"[He’s] a stand-up guy. I won’t go into it now but he stood up for me in a moment in our movie, and instantly I knew right then I’m going to follow this guy, be a fan of this guy for the rest of my life because he stood up for a woman." - Halle Berry
