Halle Berry opens up about career setbacks after Oscar win<\/p><\/div>\n

Halle Berry has gotten honest about her post Oscar struggles. <\/p>\n

During her chat with The Cut<\/i>, the 59-year-old looked back at her Best Actress win and made a shocking admission. <\/p>\n

“That Oscar didn\u2019t necessarily change the course of my career,” she admitted. “After I won it, I thought there was going to be, like, a script truck showing up outside my front door. While I was wildly proud of it, I was still Black that next morning.”<\/p>\n

“Directors were still saying, \u2018If we put a Black woman in this role, what does this mean for the whole story? Do I have to cast a Black man? Then it\u2019s a Black movie. Black movies don\u2019t sell overseas,'” The Union<\/i> actress added. <\/p>\n

Halle also revealed that she advised Cynthia Erivo, a two time Best Actress nominee, not to measure her worth by an Oscar win. <\/p>\n

“You goddamn deserve it, but I don\u2019t know that it\u2019s going to change your life,” she told the Wicked <\/i>star. “It cannot be the validation for what you do, right?”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
