Halle Berry Says Pierce Brosnan 'Restored My Faith In Men'

The Oscar winner co-starred opposite Brosnan for his final Bond outing in 2002's critically panned "Die Another Day."

Halle Berry is shouting out her former co-star Pierce Brosnan with some invaluable praise.

The Oscar winner appeared opposite Brosnan in the 2002 James Bond flick “Die Another Day.” The movie was critically panned, and ended up being Brosnan’s last turn as the iconic spy ― but Berry said Brosnan “will always be my Bond,” and that moreover, he single-handedly gave her hope for men worldwide.

“He will always be my Bond, always,” Berry, who played National Security Agency operative Jinx Johnson in the film, recently told Wired. “I’m a Pierce Brosnan fan. He restored my faith in men on that movie. There couldn’t be a human who is more of a gentleman than Pierce Brosnan.”

“I loved those movies, always,” she went on. “Having been in one, I feel like I’m a part of cinematic history. Those movies are iconic. They will forever be a part of our history, and I’m really honored to have been part of one, especially with Pierce.”

Berry ― the only Black woman ever to win the Oscar for Best Actress, for the 2001 film “Monster’s Ball” ― has spent the last few weeks promoting her latest role in “The Union” opposite Mark Wahlberg. She’s also publicly celebrated her 58th birthday, posed topless to mark the 20th anniversary of “Catwoman,” and essentially told critics of the 2004 superhero flop to quit whining.
