The movie stars current UFC Women’s Flyweight champ Valentina Shevchenko. Berry made headlines last month after admitting she sustained broken ribs during the filming of Bruised. The Hollywood star said the injury was caused during a physical day of filming with Shevchenko. Berry spoke to Variety regarding the injury…

“I didn’t want to stop because I had prepared for so long,” Berry said about the injury when speaking to We had rehearsed; we were ready. So my mind, my director’s mind, was just keep going. I compartmentalized that, and I just kept going: ‘I’m not going to stop. I’ve come too far. I’m going to act as if this isn’t hurting. I’m going to will myself through it.’ And so we did.”
