Halle Berry is sued by wrestler Cat Zingaro

This coming November will be released on Netflix

, the very first film directed by Halle Berry and whose plot takes place in the world of mixed martial arts (MMA).

But the actress and now director is the subject of a complaint lodged recently by Cat Zingano, ex-fighter of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, who accuses her of having promised her a role in her film and of not having kept her promise.

In the complaint obtained by TMZ, the sportswoman claims to have cleaned up her schedule in anticipation of the shooting.

She would have refused a major fight offer from the UFC at the request of Halle Berry, which would have resulted in the termination of her contract with the championship.

Radio silence

However, his attachment to the UFC was, it seems, a prerequisite for his participation in the film, which would explain this eviction from the casting.

Since then, Cat Zingaro has had no choice but to knock on the door of the Bellator, a rival UFC competition.

The 39-year-old fighter claims she has not been able to contact Halle Berry since her ouster from the film and she is now claiming damages for this injury.

For her part, Halle Berry has not yet reacted to these lawsuits.
