Bruised Trailer Has Halle Berry Fighting for Family in Her Directorial Debut

At the age of 52, Halle Berry is making her directorial debut with a film that was originally conceived as a short. The film, Bruised, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January and has since been acquired by Netflix for distribution.

The Bruised movie trailer is the first official trailer for Halle Berry’s directorial debut. It shows her fighting for family in a very intense scene.

In the first teaser for Netflix’s forthcoming sports drama, Bruised, Academy Award winner Halle Berry throws down. Berry stars in the film, which will be released on Netflix next month, and it also marks her directorial debut as she creates a tale about family and fighting in a victorious sports drama about a fighter who reclaims her power, in and out of the ring, after everyone has written her off.

Halle Berry, an Academy Award winner, directs and appears in Jackie Justice, a mixed martial arts fighter who quits the sport in shame, which will be released this Thanksgiving. Jackie (Adan Canto) is persuaded into a violent underground bout by her manager and lover Desi (Adan Canto) and attracts the attention of a fight league promoter (Shamier Anderson) who offers Jackie a life back in the cage. When Manny (Danny Boyd, Jr.), the 6-year-old son she gave up as an infant, shows up on her doorstep, the path to atonement becomes unexpectedly personal.

The teaser depicts an unrecognizable Halle Berry (yeah, that term is overused, but it fits here) battling hardship in her personal life while getting beaten in the cage in her professional life. Bruised, which tells the traditional story of redemption via contact sports, seems to be the ideal showcase for Berry’s commitment and award-winning skill.

Bruised also includes Adriane Lenox, Sheila Atim as Bobbi Buddhakan Berroa, Valentina Shevchenko as Lady Killer, Adan Canto as Desi, Shamier Anderson as Jackie’s supportive MMA league owner, and Stephen McKinley Henderson as Pops, in addition to Halle Berry as both main actor and director. Michelle Rosenfarb, a rookie, wrote the script for Bruised.

 

When Berry got her hands on the screenplay for Bruised, she made a lot of modifications to it, and it soon became something of a passion project for her. Berry told Entertainment Weekly earlier this year, “They offered me the screenplay and I liked the premise, but it was written for a twentysomething Irish Catholic white lady.” “I couldn’t get it out of my head, so I wondered whether it was feasible to reinvent it for someone like me. Because I believe I’ve come up with a way to make it work: it’s about a middle-aged Black woman battling for a final opportunity rather than a second chance. We all have opportunities while we’re young; they’re plenty. But it becomes something more powerful and important when you reach a particular point in life, right?”

Berry will play one of her most physically demanding parts in the film, something she did not anticipate to be undertaking at this point in her career. “It used to be that when you were 40, your career was done for good,” Berry said. “Or you had to wait till you were old enough to play a grandmother before you could try again, right? At 54 years old, I couldn’t see myself playing an MMA fighter. Yet I did, indicating that something is shifting. That is something I can attest to.”

On September 12, 2023, Bruised made its international debut at the Toronto International Film Festival. Netflix is planning to release it on November 24, 2023.
