he asked ExtraTVThe actor returned to the difficulties created by shooting particularly shocking and choreographed action scenes.

It was a little scary at first because he is so talented. I wanted to be level and not disappoint him. But I hurt myself during the rehearsals, I broke three ribs (…), but it’s like something I’m proud of. I don’t know, to be honest, how it happened (…), but I continued to work on those broken ribs for a while.”

It was at this time that director Chad Stahelski wanted to give the actor a break, and Halle Berry recalls the director’s words:

Halle Berry was a total flop, but she learned 3 lessons

“We might stop” (laughs). But to my delight, I told myself that I was injured, I was going to be off the set for a while and maybe I could change, but Chad decided to wait. He put a little. The production pressure waited for my return, and when I came back, I even felt better.”

Halle Berry has always appreciated action cinema, which is an important part of her filmography. Thus, she was a “James Bond girl” (Die Another Day), an astronaut (Moon Fall), X-Men (the first trilogy and Days of Future Past), Catwoman (Catwoman), a member of the state (Kingsman: The Circle gold) or Even a DEA agent (Operation Swordfish).
