Popularly known for her stunning red-carpet looks, Berry has undergone a drastic
transformation as she plays an MMA fighter in this upcoming Netflix
[https://www.netflix.com/] movie. But is the character based on an actual person
or is it all just fiction?


BRUISED: TRAILER

On October 14, Netflix [https://netflixjunkie.com/category/news/] released a
full-length trailer for Bruised. The trailer looks really very interesting and
will definitely make you want to watch the movie this Thanksgiving. Starring
Halle Berry, Shamier Anderson, Adan Canto, Sheila Atim, Stephen McKinley
Henderson, and UFC [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/mma/ufc/] women’s
flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko
[https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/valentina-shevchenko/]; the movie
explores the complications and struggles Jackie Justice goes through after her
retirement from fighting.




WHAT IS THE MOVIE ABOUT?

Bruised is about MMA fighter Jackie Justice, and her struggle to keep herself
together. Jackie is a middle-aged black woman who scrubs toilets to make ends
meet. Her troubles worsen when she has to look after a kid, too.

The trailer lets us have a sight of Berry sporting worn-out clothes and dark
circles, and she is looking absolutely phenomenal. “I loved it because fighting
is something that I just know so much about on a personal level and on a career
level. I understand what it is to fight and not be heard,” Berry said

IS JACKIE JUSTICE A REAL PERSON?

A question that may arise among the fans centers around whether Jackie is a real
person. Well, sadly, she is not. The entire story is a fictional piece of art,
but that does not mean that it has no real elements. The struggles that are
shown in the movie are similar to what many people go through in their life.

A story of the trials that a once glorious MMA fighter goes through, Bruised
should definitely be on your watch list for the upcoming month.
