Halle Berry : Bows Out of Broadway Show Because of "Custody Issues"

Halle Berry has been forced to drop out of her Broadway debut .

The Oscar winner was set to appear in the "Mountaintop" a fictionalized account of the night before Dr.Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination ... with Samuel L. Jackson starring as King ...but producers of the show said in a statement , "Ms. B erry would not be appearing in the role due to child-custody issues."

Berry was slated to play a maid at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis , where King was slain on April 4 , 1968 .

This is not the first time the actress has had to drop out of a part because of the  contentious custody battle  over her daughter with former boyfriend Gabriel Aubry.

Back in February, Berry turned over her role in New Years Eve to Katherine Heigl because Aubry challenged Berry's right to travel cross-country to New York with Nahla to shoot the film . The  court eventually sided with Berry  and she took another part in New  Years' Eve .

My goodness , what a girl to do ???
