She just posted herself with white hair right as Deadpool starts filming..We would probably see Halle Berry return first.

Halle Berry hasn't been given the right material in these comic book movies yet. And its too bad. Such a wasted potential really.I've gone back and forth over the years on Halle's performance as Storm. But ever since John Wick, I've decided we all haven't appreciated her enough. And hey, with the old Spider-Men, the Ghostbusters, the Enterprise crew, and even the Power Rangers all coming out of retirement, why shouldn't Halle get another go?
Yeah, no one who truly has Storm as one of their favourite characters would have come up with that.Because they all were horrible X-Men fans.
"Im a huge fan" "Love the comics" "Storm is one of my fave characters"......... Sure.

A new content for MaX I guess?But she has a cat and her caption says "patience takes practice" which might be a reference to her Catwoman character Patience Phillips.
The problem with the characterization of Storm is not Halle's fault. The writers and directors did not know how to make her character interesting outside of using her powers.
Obviously we've known that scenes and dialogue about Storm's past were cut in both X1, X3 and Apocalypse. Halle Berry reportedly also had a lot of conflicts with Bryan Singer about the character. This is the cherry on top. I know I'm biased, but this is just absurd.“I went into one of the executive’s office and I saw an X3 script, and I immediately knew it was a lot fatter. I was like what the hell is this draft. He went, ‘Don’t worry about it,’ and I’m like, ‘No, no. I’m the director. I’m worrying about this draft,'” he recalled. “He wouldn’t tell me, so I grabbed it literally — it was like a crazy moment — opened the first page, and it said, ‘Africa. Storm. Kids dying of no water. She creates a thunderstorm and saves all these children.'”
Vaughn admitted he found it a “pretty cool idea,” but once he learned what was going to happen to the script, his relationship to the project soured. “[I went,] ‘What is this?’ [They said,] ‘Oh, it’s Halle Berry’s script. I went, ‘OK, because she hasn’t signed up yet.’ ‘But this is what she wants it to be, and once she signs up, we’ll throw it in the bin,'” the director said, recounting the executive’s response. “I was like, ‘Wow, you’re gonna do that to an Oscar-winning actress who plays Storm? I’m outta here.’ So I quit at that point .”

Do we want Storm to speak to the weather in almost Shakespearean fashion?
I think we're overdue on the White suit.I want her costume to be the iconic 90s costume. But we'll see if we see Halle Berry wears it first.
I'm going to say no. Whilst it works in the cartoon, if someone spoke like that in real life, it would be almost comical. Storm's power displays in live action should be awesome not funny. Her enemies should have an "oh crap!" reaction when she starts using her powers, not just stand there doing nothing whilst she rambles on and then there being fart jokes about her "summoning wind".
I think it could be done in live action...but not by the MCU. The MCU just has too much of an irreverent, self aware tone for certain things to be taken seriously in it.
