Halle Berry Lists All the Broken Bones She's Gotten from Action Movies
Berry Has Been Knocked Out Three Times
Halle Berry credits The Last Boy Scout with turning her into an action star—a label she’s worn with pride ever since. However, there’s a hidden cost to the intense physicality that defines the genre: injuries.
During an August 2022 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Berry revealed that her commitment to action has led to a litany of broken bones. “I've broken a couple of ribs. I broke my foot. I broke my toe. I broke my wrist,” she told the host.
But the most shocking revelation was the number of times Berry has been knocked unconscious on set: three. She told Kimmel: “I’ve been knocked out three times. Once on this movie called Bruised, I got knocked out and I actually went to the hospital.
Berry Says She’s Willing to Risk It All
Despite the injuries, Berry says she has no plans to slow down. “I love doing action movies,” she said. “I love the physicality of it. I love the challenge of it. And I’m willing to risk it all for a great role.”
Berry’s willingness to put her body on the line is a testament to her dedication to her craft. It’s also a reminder of the often-overlooked toll that action movies take on their stars.
