NOW: Halle Berry
In the 90s, Berry began her acting career in earnest when she got her big break in the 1992 romantic comedy called Boomerang where she costarred with Eddie Murphy. She then featured in the 1994 family comedy called The Flintstones. Berry would continue appearing in mostly mild family comedies until 2001, when she shocked audiences with her revolutionary role in 2001’s Monster’s Ball. She would end up winning an Academy Award for Best Actress for the role, becoming the first woman of color to do so.
