10 Fascinating Facts You Didn't Know About John Wick
4. The Training Is So Rigorous Halle Berry Broke Three Ribs
When joining a franchise with a reputation and leading man such as the John Wick series, actors must feel an obligation to give 110% to try and match the intensity of the filmmaking process. That is just what Halle Berry did in preparation for her role in the latest film.
As the video above shows, Berry underwent the same weapons training as Reeves and did a damn good job of keeping up with someone who already had two movies' worth of practice under his belt. She also broke three ribs, and claimed it was a "badge of honour" for her.
Her training also included hours of stunt training, strength training, and dog training with her canine co-stars. Berry spent hours on top of her own training getting to know the animals better, and finding out what types of personality each dog had. She also said that there were lots of stray cats on set while filming with the dogs, and they became harder to control because of this, sometimes costing takes.
