The Oscar-winning actress added that the project was very special to her, not just because it is her directorial debut, but also because MMA is a sport that she absolutely loves and is a genre that has always been winning.

"Bruised" had already received its worldwide premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2020.

It also features Shamier Anderson as an encouraging MMA league owner and Valentina Shevchenko as Berry's main rival.
