Summary
Jill Wagner said the "Lioness" cast trains for a month or more before filming Season 3 to make weapons handling and movement look credible on screen.
SEAL, Green Beret and Delta veterans help run that boot camp, she said, focusing first on technical gun work before actors rehearse action choreography.
Technical advisors were on set every day—sometimes 2 at once—to correct mistakes, answer questions and keep the show's shootouts as accurate as possible.
Wagner said she also underwent a physical transformation for her role as Bobby, underscoring how Taylor Sheridan's CIA-military drama pushes for realism beyond standard TV action.
