Halle Berry and Kim Kardashian will no longer star in the same TV show. The news comes as a shock since the notorious casting announcement was made only a week ago.
“All’s Fair” is Ryan Murphy’s new legal drama, described as “a high-end, glossy and sexy adult procedural,” per Deadline. Murphy serves as writer, director, and executive producer.
As of now, the cast is made up of Kim Kardashian and Glenn Close. Berry was scheduled to have a regular role in the show and to serve as one of the producers. Variety was the first to report the news of Berry’s dropping out of the series, with a source claiming that the issue was due to scheduling conflicts.
Berry’s career began with small parts on television. She later moved on to acclaimed performances in HBO TV movies like “Introducing Dorothy Dandridge” and “Lackawanna Blues,” which earned her Emmy nominations. Berry’s scheduled for some exciting projects in the near future, including the horror film “Never Let Go”, and “The Union,” alongside Mark Wahlberg. She’s also starring in “Maude vs Maude,” an action thriller co-starring Angelina Jolie.
