Perfect Stranger marks Halle Berry's first headlining theatrical role since 2004's disastrous Catwoman. While she's marked some time with television roles and working in a supporting role in the third X-Men film, she's been fairly quiet in recent years.
 Berry will play investigative reporter Rowena Price in Perfect Stranger. When a friend is murdered, Rowena discovers that the crime might be connected to a powerful ad executive named Harrison Hill (Bruce Willis). She decides to go undercover to expose the man (with a little help from a co-worker played by Giovanni Ribisi).
 
 Rowena takes on dual roles as she enters Hill's life. First, she disguises herself as Katherine, a temp at the ad exec's agency. She also pretends to be someone named Veronica, a woman who Hill flirts with online. Soon, Rowena's game takes an unexpected turn as she realizes she isn't nearly in as much control as she thought she was. (Kim Hollis/BOP)
