She’s no stranger to high-profile industry events, and earlier today (June 13) Halle Berry was in the house for the 12th Annual Shanghai Film Festival.

The “Monster’s Ball” babe looked lovely as she attended a news conference, sporting a black jacket by a black and white top with shiny black slim-fit trousers and black platform heels before stepping out for the ceremony in a flowing white gown.

And

it sounds like Halle has her eyes on “The Surrogate” as her next big film, though she’s still in talks with 20th Century Fox by contract details.

“The Surrogate” is based on a 2004 novel by Kathryn Mackel, and centers on a couple desperate to have a child who find out that the surrogate they’ve hired to carry their child is insane.
