According to a report from FoxNews.com, Halle Berry isn't permitting her
recent injury stop her from working. Reportedly, the award-winning actress was
found herself injured following an on-set mishap for her new film,
Bruised.
Responding to the reports, the 53-year-old actress claims
she was "just getting started." The Monster's Ball alum subsequently went on
her Instagram to share her condition with fans. Ever since the star shared the
news of her injury with her social media followers, many of them have shown
support.
Berry captioned one photo with a positive "thank you" message for
all those who showed her some love. The Monster's Ball alum stated that
getting injured on set was a normal thing to happen for those who do their own
stunts. The Oscar winner joked she was "wide awake."
After the incident went down on Monday, a representative for the
film stated that the Catwoman alum got hurt during a fight. She was tired and
needed a break, so production was expected to resume on Friday of this
week.
As fans of the actress know, this movie marks the first time
Halle has ever sat in the director's chair. In the film, she stars as a
disgraced MMA fighter whose six-year-old child, whom she abandoned, finds his
way back into her life.
Earlier this year, Halle showed off that she had been training
vociferously by sporting her abs on Instagram. Berry urged her followers to
share their goals in the comment section and hold themselves to it no matter
what.
Berry said that it wouldn't be easy, but the pay-off would be
completely worth it. Berry isn't the only Hollywood star to perform their own
stunts. Tom Cruise is notorious for doing it all himself in movies and has
even been injured several times in the past.
During the filming of the latest Mission Impossible film in 2017,
production was delayed for a few months on account of Tom suffering an ankle
injury. Sources who spoke with Variety claimed the actor broke his ankle and
also did some damage to his hip.
