The cast of “Lioness” undergoes significant training for the hit Paramount+ series.
The epic CIA/military drama series created by Taylor Sheridan is currently airing season three. The first three episodes of the new season are out, and as expected, it’s awesome.
The best part of “Lioness” is that it has the best action scenes on TV, and there’s no comparable rival. Season two had some absurdly neat shootouts. The season three premiere took things to new levels.
TAYLOR SHERIDAN’S ‘LIONESS’ KEEPS FANS HOOKED AS LATEST EPISODE RAISES THE STAKES IN A BIG WAY
How much training is required of the cast to make the shootouts feel real?
A lot.
“Lioness” star Jill Wagner, who plays Bobby on the series, recently appeared on “The Gold Shields Show” to reveal the intense boot camp the cast goes through to make sure the movements and weapons handling is as accurate as possible.
“We train for a month prior. He puts you through basically a boot camp and we have our whether it be a SEAL or Green Beret or Delta Guy, whatever, they come out and they help us and they really work with us. And these are people that are, I mean, I look at these guys, I’m like, ‘You guys are extremely patient people.’ Because we are actors. We are not operators like we are trying our best to play but I think we are all very aware that we, you know, we are not the real deal but in order to portray it, like you you have to go through, for us, we have to go through a month if not more training,” Wagner explained on the podcast.

The talented actress continued, “And that’s just for the technical side of things. That’s just for the gun side of things. And then as you know, I’m sure you guys know, it’s a perishable skill. So if you’re not shooting every day, if you’re not doing something, you can forget and you can pick up bad habits. So, our technical advisors, there was at least one on set at all times, if not two, and we would go over all of our choreography and, you know, wear those guys out with questions. But they were always great, and I and I think that was very important with Taylor. You know, a lot of these shows don’t have technical advisors there behind the camera every single day watching every move that all of us do.”

“Now, and I’m sure now that I say that, I’m sure that I’m going to do something dumb in the next episode and everybody’s going to be like, ‘Where was the technical advice for that day?” Look, I get it all the time, but yeah, it’s really important to I know all of our actors that we at least look the part as much as we can,” Wagner further commented.
The “Lioness” actress also revealed she underwent a physical transformation to look the part of an elite operator.

NEW LIONESS SEASON 3 TRAILER SIGNALS TAYLOR SHERIDAN IS TAKING THE PARAMOUNT+ SERIES TO NEW HEIGHTS
The effort and training the “Lioness” cast puts in certainly doesn’t go unnoticed. While my CQB knowledge is limited (I have never done CQB at a high level and would get melted by any well-trained guy in a heartbeat), I know enough to understand the show makes it feel as real as possible.
After all, it’s a TV show. Expecting it to be as accurate as SEAL Team 6 or Delta Force hitting a target is utterly ridiculous.
All you can hope is for the action sequences to be as believable as possible, and “Lioness” easily accomplishes that goal.
