Halle Berry is known for her love of MMA and is often sighted at various UFC events in the crowd. This isn’t just some kind of celebrity gimmick either, she even starred as the lead role in 2020 movie called Bruised, which saw her play a female MMA fighter.
This saw the likes of Valentina Shevchenko star alongside the US actress. During shooting for Bruised, she was known to train and hang out with Brian Ortega too, who is a UFC fighter and BJJ black belt under Rener Gracie.
However, it’s not just Bruised where Halle Berry learned Brazilian Jiu Jitu. During filming for John Wick 3, she shared an Instagram story that showed her doing some groundwork in the gi, and used the hashtag #Johnwick3. So, it’s not known what level she is at when it comes to BJJ, but given her MMA background, it’s understandable that she knows some of the basics.
It turns out that John Wick is actually filled with BJJ techniques too, with the lead role Keanu Reeves also training for his role.
