SPOILER ALERT: This story contains spoilers for “Deadpool & Wolverine,” which is now playing in theaters

Halle Berry revealed in a recent interview with ComicBook.com while promoting her upcoming Netflix movie “The Union” that she was never asked by Ryan Reynolds to reprise her “X-Men” movie role of Storm in “Deadpool & Wolverine.” The record-breaking Marvel blockbuster featured the surprise returns of several heroes from Fox’s Marvel era, from Jennifer Garner’s Elektra to Wesley Snipes’ Blade.

“No,” Berry said when asked if there were talks about playing Storm again in the latest Marvel movie. “Blake [Lively] asked me one time — I ran into her at a Marc Jacobs fashion show — and she said, ‘Would you ever be in my husband’s movie as Storm?’ I said, ‘Yeah, if he asked me,’ but he never asked me.”

Berry played Storm alongside Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine in four “X-Men” movies: 2000’s “X-Men,” 2003’s “X2: X-Men United,” 2006’s “X-Men: The Last Stand” and 2014’s “X-Men: Days of Future Past.” A couple of characters from these movies made appearances in “Deadpool & Wolverine,” including Tyler Mane as Sabretooth and Aaron Stanford as Pyro. Berry’s Storm was not featured, nor was Patrick Stewart’s Charles Xavier. The film’s director, Shawn Levy, previously stated that Stewart’s return was never considered or discussed during development.

Storm is one of Berry's most iconic roles. She's been candid in previous interviews about disagreements with “X-Men” and “X2” director Bryan Singer on the set during the filming of the comic book movies. Famously, she retorted to him during one heated exchange: “You can kiss my Black ass.”

“Bryan’s not the easiest dude to work with,” Berry previously told Variety. “I mean, everybody’s heard the stories — I don’t have to repeat them — and heard of his challenges, and what he struggles with … I would sometimes be very angry with him. I got into a few fights with him, said a few cuss words out of sheer frustration. When I work, I’m serious about that. And when that gets compromised, I get a little nutty.”

“At times, due to whatever challenges he was facing, he wasn’t always fully present,” Berry shared. “He didn’t seem engaged. And we were on set in the frigid weather of Banff, Canada, in our makeshift ‘X-Men’ stage, and he wasn’t concentrating. Meanwhile, we were freezing. It's understandable that you might get a little frustrated.”

Singer was replaced by Brett Ratner on “X-Men: The Last Stand,” but the studio was initially considering filmmaker Matthew Vaughn. The director revealed last year that he turned down the offer to direct “The Last Stand” after learning about a studio executive’s plan to mislead Berry into reprising her role as Storm.

“One of the primary reasons I walked away from ‘X-Men 3,’ and this is a true story,” Vaughn revealed, “I went into an executive's office and saw an ‘X3’ script. It was considerably longer. I inquired, ‘What's this draft about?’ They said, ‘Don't worry about it.’ So, I grabbed it, flipped to the first page, and it read, ‘Africa. Kids are dying from a lack of water, and Storm creates a thunderstorm to save all these children.’”

“I found it to be a rather intriguing concept,” Vaughn continued. “I asked, ‘What's this about?’ They responded, ‘This is Halle Berry's script, since she hasn't signed on yet. This is her vision. And once she signs on, we'll toss it in the trash.’ I thought, if you're going to treat an Oscar-winning actress who plays Storm like that, I'm out.”

Berry ultimately reprised her role as Storm in “X-Men: The Last Stand,” but the film did not incorporate any scenes set in Africa as the script Vaughn reviewed had envisioned. However, “The Last Stand” did provide Storm with a more prominent role, as she assumes leadership of Charles Xavier's school for mutants following his demise.
