Back in the octagon in Bruised

After three years in the making, Halle Berry finally announced Bruised release.

The MMA drama tells the story of an underdog fighter facing a strong rival played by real-life UFC flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko.

Synopsis: Jackie Justice (Halle Berry) is a mixed martial arts fighter who leaves the sport in disgrace. Down on her luck and simmering with rage and regret years after her last fight, she’s coaxed into a brutal underground fight by her manager and boyfriend Desi (Adan Canto) and grabs the attention of a fight league promoter (Shamier Anderson) who promises Jackie a life back in the octagon. But the road to redemption becomes unexpectedly personal when Manny (Danny Boyd, Jr.) — the son she gave up as an infant — shows up at her doorstep.

Bruised will be released in select theaters on November 17th and globally on Netflix on November 24th.
