B-D Gets Second Chance at Halle Berry in 'Surrogate'

Six years after being turned away from the Gothika junket, Bloody-Disgusting will have another chance to go toe-to-toe with Oscar winner Halle Berry as she's in talks to join 20th Century Fox's thriller The Surrogate. Back in 2003 Berry refused to admit B-D into the junket for Gothika deeming us "too scary" (I'm not kidding), thankfully her performance was the only thing that was truly scary. Based on the 2004 book by Kathryn Mackel, Surrogate centers on a couple desperate to have a child who find themselves in an unbearable position when they find out the surrogate they hired to carry their baby is insane. Berry would play the wife who wants to have the child.

The story? Quick and sweet version. Warner Bros. flies us out to Los Angeles to Chicago to see the movie and then interview Halle Berry and others. We show up at the junket and are refused entry with the publicist stating, "Halle Berry has to approve everyone and she thought your site was too scary." I say, "What are we supposed to do?" She says, "Whatever you want... sorry." So awkward and effin' weird. I will straight up ask her about this if I get the chance for this movie. Fingers crossedddddddddd

Wait... so she thinks the target audience for the kind of film she's starring in is too scary to even talk to?! Wtf! Granted, this is a sci-fi film, but many people will tell you that sci-fi and horror go hand-in-hand much of the time and most big fans of one are fans of the other.

Oh, so that was back when she was promoting for "Gothika?" That's even worse! She was in a horror movie and didn't want to talk to horror audiences!

Nothing was wrong with Gothika. It was actually one of the only ghost type movies I actually like... other than maybe like five others obviously.

I like Halle Berry, but this movie sounds like so many others. I mean sure this time it's not the baby/kid that's evil, but it's not much different. Hopefully it'll rise above movies like The Unborn.

this time while youre interviewing her, whip out your bloody chainsaw and put it across your lap and tell her how much you dug gothika.

Ok, excuse my idiocracy for once. I thought we were discussing SURROGATES, not THE SURROGATE! I had no idea they were two different movies.

Who new plurals could make such a big fucking difference?

Wow. I mean... wow. That's a great claim to fame for the site though: "Too scary for Halle Berry." The film sounds very generic really, nothing we haven't seen a zillion times before.

Why not take the time to remind her of "Catwoman"??? ..... that should remind her that fans can be very ...forgiving...

Yeah, they need to change the title or people will think Bruce Willis is kicking ass alongside Halle Berry
