She spent months training with a ‘whip master’, though on her first day she managed to catch him in the face, drawing blood.
“It completely shattered me,” she admitted in discussing the film in 2017, but she clearly got over the hump.
Likely digging through the shed, she found her trusty whip, and posted the nostalgic discovery to Instagram.
“Look what I found,” she said. “Needs a little TLC.”
