Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry are creating movie magic as the stars of The Union, a comedy thriller released on Netflix August 16.
Wahlberg, 53, appears as a construction worker named Mike, a character he describes as a âblue-collar James Bond,â whoâs roped into the high-octane world of espionage by his high school sweetheart, played by Berry.
Expressing her excitement to finally share the screen with her friend of about 30 years, Berry, 58, tells The Hollywood Reporter, âWhen this happened, I thought, âwow, this is the thing I didnât know that I needed.â Iâve known Mark forever and a day, and it was a joyous experience. It was fun,â she says. âIt was like going home in a way.â
Praising his co-star, Wahlberg tells Entertainment Tonight, âIâve always been a huge fan of her and an admirer of her work. Doing anything with Halle is very easy but also an absolute joy.â He continues, âPretty much any guy or gal would do anything to win her over, so it was certainly easy when it came to me basically following her like a puppy.â
âShe is in incredible shape, and you donât have to worry about her being believable in those situations,â he adds of Berryâs character in the film, a covert operative.
âBecause I canâ
And when Berry walked the red carpet on August 12 for the filmâs opening, she offered evidence to Wahlbergâs comments about her âincredible shape.â
Berry appeared in a daring long-sleeve black, sheer dress with lace embellishments.
When asked by the Hollywood Reporter why she chose a lingerie-style one-piece dress, she responded, âBecause I can, goddamn.â
And Wahlberg agrees: âNobody else can pull that off but Halle Berry,â he says.
Berry walked the red carpet on August 12 with her 16-year-old daughter Nahla, who was excited to meet her motherâs co-star.
âWell, I got cool points when I introduced my daughter to Mark, because she loves Daddyâs Home,â Berry tells People. âThatâs one of her favorite movies. So when I got to introduce her to Mark, I think it was the first time in my whole career where she said âOh, you know Mark Wahlberg? Okay youâre cool.ââ
Meanwhile, at the filmâs premiere, the star of the Ted franchise wore a crisp white T-shirt, black pants and a navy-blue jacket with an orange inseam from his own clothing brand, Municipal.
The star was joined by his wife Rhea Durham, their sons Brendan, 15, and Michael, 18, and daughter Grace, 14.
âLow classâ
As the two stars posed together for photos, their chemistry was undeniable. However, Berry sparked reactions from critics with more than just her daring dress.
âShe is in incredible shape! Good for her! But this look cheapens her, not classy. Sorry, not sorry,â writes one fan. Responding to that comment, another shares, âAt least it gives you something to B**** about unlike boring Marky Mark as always.â
âItâs more like escort lingerie,â snipes another cyber fan.
âLow class hugging him dressed like that and heâs married,â one critic writes about Berry tossing her one arm over her friend of 30 years.
Other fans offered their mixed reviews: âShe looks amazing, but Iâm not feeling the style of
her dress. I feel like thereâs too much going on with the lace. I hope I look like this at 57, though. Unreal.â Another remarks, âNot the greatest of looks, however, she pulled it off only because she looks brilliant- that body!â
Other fans however gushed over her eternal beauty.
âIf I had her body at her age, [I] would dress the same,â shares one while a second adds, âIf I had her body⊠I would too lolâ
A third shares, âShe looks amazing. What is wrong with people?â
