‘Tried To Make Sure That…’: Julian Farino, Halle Berry And Mark Wahlberg Breaks Down Final Sequence Of Netflix’s The Union

As a die-hard fan of pulse-pounding action and captivating performances, I can confidently say that The Union, starring Halle Berry and Mark Wahlberg, is a cinematic masterpiece that has left me utterly spellbound! The final sequence, skillfully directed by Julian Farino, is an exhilarating rollercoaster ride of fights, car chases, humor, and raw emotions.


The hype is real as Halle Berry and Mark Wahlberg have come out in action on screen. The latest Netflix movie, The Union, brings forth a never-before-told tale and has an amazing final sequence that has been shot by the film’s director, Julian Farino. 

Discussing this remarkable scene, known for its high-octane action and additional captivating elements, actors Berry and Wahlberg offer intriguing insights. Recently, they shared these insights during an interview, accompanied by Farino.

To Entertainment Weekly, director Julian Farino revealed the climactic sequence, featuring an intense battle, a thrilling auto pursuit, sprinkled humor, and heart-tugging moments that may leave viewers questioning their very emotions.

“I tried to make sure that the action included character engagement,” Farino told the outlet. 

Afterward, the director mentioned that the closing scene was precisely what he had envisioned, providing both excitement and allowing the characters to seamlessly fit into the narrative. He emphasized his desire for Mark and Halle’s performances to form a harmonious duo, referring to it as the “intersection” where their characters met and blended together.

After experiencing some bruises, the actress offers insights into her character, Roxanne, revealing that this character is entrusted with a risky mission and must rely on another person for support.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d rephrase it this way: Halle Berry, in her own words, confessed that the character she portrayed wasn’t ready for the unexpected resurgence of feelings towards Mark Wahlberg’s character that she found herself experiencing.

In the flick, I, a clandestine operative named Roxanne, make my way to Mark Wahlberg’s Mike, a construction worker from my past. He’s the only soul I can confide in, as we share a history dating back to our high school days. With him by my side, we embark on an exhilarating journey that pits us against my estranged husband, Nick. This renegade is not just any spouse; he has betrayed me and is attempting to peddle top-secret intel to the highest bidder.

Regarding his personality, Mark Wahlberg referred to him as an open book, someone who needed to penetrate the tough facade that Roxanne had built around herself. Moreover, they, Wahlberg and Farino, discussed the much-awaited rooftop fight scene, which was a key focus for the director.

According to Farino’s account, he desired the rooftop battle scene due to its striking visual appeal, with the ocean serving as a backdrop.

During this time, the actor from Pain and Gain expressed his discomfort with one particular scene. “I guess I got a bit dizzy,” said Mark Wahlberg, explaining that the leaping, sprinting, and chase sequences didn’t really appeal to him; but he admitted that he still enjoyed himself overall.

The Union is a comedy Spy film released on Netflix on August 16, 2024.
