Halle Berry was seemingly game to reprise her X-Men role of Storm in Deadpool & Wolverine but was not approached by Ryan Reynolds.

In a new interview, Berry says she was asked by Reynolds’ wife, Blake Lively if she would bring the Mistress of the Elements back to life, but she never got a formal offer.

“No,” Berry told ComicBook about being asked to reprise her superhero role.

She continued, “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.”

The latest Marvel Studios film is an homage to the superhero characters from 20th Century Fox. Deadpool & Wolverine featured cameos from Jennifer Garner’s Elektra and Wesley Snipes’ Blade.

Berry will next be seen on Netflix’s The Union, set for release on August 16. Berry stars opposite Mark Wahlberg as an espionage duo in the spy action comedy film.

During the red carpet premiere of the film, Berry opened up about her exit from the Hulu legal drama All’s Fair, in which she would’ve starred opposite Kim Kardashian.

“You know, things happen for a reason,” Berry said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. “[But] I would have loved to have been there with those ladies, and I know it’s gonna be great.”

She added, “[It’s] Ryan Murphy! I mean, you know duh, but next time!”
