Halle Berry got her kiss back from Adrien Brody … planting one on the Academy Award winner’s lips in a callback to a viral moment during the 2003 ceremony.
The two stars both hit the Oscars red carpet Sunday night … and, in the middle of one of Brody’s many interviews, Berry interrupted — and pulled the star in for a passionate embrace.

Unphased, Brody kissed her back … before the two broke apart and hugged. Halle then told the assembled crowd that she “had to pay him back.”
If you don’t remember … back in 2003, Adrien won his first Oscar for “The Pianist” — an award Halle, who won Best Actress in 2001 for “Monster’s Ball,” presented to him.
When he got up onstage, instead of taking the award Brody took Berry into his arms … and kissed her live onstage,
It’s a pretty memorable moment from the ceremony’s 97 years running … and, it looks like Halle finally got to return the favor more than 20 years later.
Of course, Adrien is up for Best Actor again for his role in “The Brutalist” … and, many believe he’s the favorite to take home the trophy.
Emma Stone’s presenting the award tonight … and, she’s married — so Adrien should probably keep his tongue to himself if he does win.
