Halle Berry And Corey Hawkins Star Alongside Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, And Barry Keoghan In ‘Crime 101’

The first look at Crime 101 teases a sleek, high-stakes thriller led by Halle Berry and Corey Hawkins, alongside Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Barry Keoghan, and Monica Barbaro. Directed by Bart Layton and based on Don Winslow’s novella, the film follows a thief who abides by a strict moral code while pulling off a series of jewelry heists along California’s Pacific Coast Highway.

Berry plays Sharon Colvin, a sharp and calculating insurance underwriter who finds herself entangled in the criminal underworld she’s built a career protecting. Her role adds emotional and psychological depth to the story as she walks the fine line between legality and corruption. For Berry, Crime 101 marks a return to the kind of tense, character-driven thrillers that showcase her command of complexity and control.

Hawkins stars as Detective Tillman, an ambitious investigator determined to uncover the thief’s pattern while navigating his own ambitions within law enforcement. His portrayal brings an understated intensity to the pursuit, grounding the film’s action with authenticity and drive.

With Layton’s grounded storytelling and a cast stacked with powerhouse talent, Crime 101 promises to deliver more than just a heist story—it’s a study in morality, power, and the choices that blur the line between right and wrong.

Crime 101 hits theaters on February 13, 2026.
