Halle Berry – “Extant”

Famous A-list actress Berry is set to star on her own TV drama — continuing a growing trend of network TV adding black women in leading roles to their lineup and popular black actresses at that. This fantasy drama will focus on Berry playing an astronaut named Molly who was in space alone and then came home to her husband and son. But her time in space somehow caused some history-changing events. Sounds like it’ll be action and Sci-Fi packed! The show will premiere on CBS in July.
