While Halle Berry was all set to make her debut on Broadway this year in the Mountaintop, producers of the play explain that the starlet had to drop out of the role due to “custody issues” over her daughter Nahla, according to new reports.
Halle will "not be appearing in the role due to child-custody issues,” producers said of the September slated play in a statement via Pop Eater this weekend.
