Jessie Buckley, a two-time Oscar nominee, disclosed that she sustained a broken toe during the final week of principal photography for Maggie Gyllenhaal's upcoming film, 'The Bride!'. The incident occurred in a scene featuring a gunshot, where Buckley overextended her toe while falling backward multiple times.
Despite the painful injury, which resulted in significant swelling, Buckley was required to continue filming the following day. She humorously noted that the altered gait might have even complemented her character's physicality. 'The Bride!' is set in 1930s Chicago and features Christian Bale as Frankenstein, who creates a companion for himself.
The film also stars Annette Bening as Dr. Euphronious and follows the creation of The Bride from a murdered young woman. The narrative promises murder, possession, and a passionate outlaw romance. 'The Bride!' is slated for theatrical and IMAX release on March 6, 2026.
