Halle Berry begins filming for Roland Emmerich's space thriller Moonfall, shares update on Instagram

Hollywood star Halle Berry is set to begin filming for Roland Emmerich’s next disaster thriller Moonfall . The Oscar winner took to Instagram on Sunday to share the update.

Berry, 54, will essay the role of a NASA astronaut-turned-administrator whose previous space mission holds a clue about an impending catastrophe.

“Officially out of #Quarantine - ready to get to work! #Moonfall here I come!” she captioned a selfie.

Moonfall follows the aftermath of when the moon is knocked from its orbit by a mysterious force and is on a collision course with Earth.

Life hangs in the balance and with just weeks to go before impact, a ragtag team is sent on a near-impossible mission to land on the lunar surface and save humanity.

Patrick Wilson, Stanley Tucci, Josh Gad, and John Bradley also round the cast of Moonfall.
