Halle Berry as Ruth Younger

I chose Halle Berry to play Ruth Younger as although Ruth may be approaching 35 in the next few years and looks a little weathered and worn, you are able to see that she was definitely gorgeous in her time.  Halle Berry is definitely a gorgeous woman in celebrity society and I think she would be the perfect actor to play this role.  She’s strong and knows how to get things done and Halle Berry’s persona defiantly emits that.
