Yet, Halle Berry, the first Black woman to win Best Actress at the Oscars for her role in Monster’s Ball, might seem like someone who would instantly command respect. However, it appears that even she and other women continue to encounter petty situations. Recently, during filming of their new project, Crime 101, Chris Hemsworth stood up for Berry in a significant moment. This act of allyship has earned Hemsworth a loyal fan in Berry, who publicly admires the Marvel star.

At CinemaCon 2025 in Las Vegas, Berry and an Australian actor appeared to publicize “Crime 101”. This movie revolves around detective Lou Lubesnick, portrayed by Mark Ruffalo, chasing a jewel thief, Davis (Hemsworth’s character). The thief follows a rulebook for the ideal heist, which is outlined in the Crime 101 guidelines. E! News had an exclusive interview with Halle Berry about the film on the red carpet. During their conversation, she commended Chris for his unwavering support of her.
