Florence Pugh is one of the most popular actresses in Hollywood. Although she discovered her love for acting at a young age, she did not make her professional acting debut until 2014 when she appeared as a precocious teenager opposite Maisie Williams in the drama The Falling. She has been nothing short of a trailblazer in the Hollywood entertainment industry as she has stunned the world with one excellent performance after another.
Florence Pugh got her international breakthrough in 2019 when she starred in three great movies. As of recent, the actress has been a member of the cast of Denis Villeneuve’s epic sci-fi film Dune: Part Two. While being interviewed on the red carpet, she revealed how she ruined an intense scene on her first day on the set.
Florence Pugh Ruined One of the Intense Scenes of Dune: Part Two
Florence Pugh kickstarted 2019 with the comedy-drama Fighting with My Family. Then she starred in Ari Aster’s horror film Midsommar, followed by Greta Gerwig’s period drama Little Women. The last of these earned the BAFTA and Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance.
Denis Villeneuve’s Dune, released in 2021, is nothing short of a cinematic masterpiece. The movie’s second part is finally getting released. The movie’s cast is busy appearing for press junkets and interviews.
While on the red carpet for the London premiere of the movie, Florence Pugh and Timothee Chalamet were interviewed by BBC News (via Enticers on Youtube). When asked what it has been like to join the cast, Pugh said:
“I’ve been saying all along I got to fall in love with this movie the world did and then I got to be part of the second so I just arrived on the set, ruined one of their scenes one day, said ‘Hi!’ and then we just got to it.”
Timothee Chalamet chimed in to say:
“She came for the most dramatic inopportune moment.”
Pugh went on to explain, saying:
“Denis told me to come to set and I was like ‘Yeah, I’ll come meet everyone,’ and they were doing probably one of the most intense scenes of the movie.”
Chalamet then said that the acting in that particular scene should have been 100 percent and it is only 70 percent. Now, fans have to figure out which scene the actors are talking about.
Florence Pugh on Her Character in Dune: Part Two
Although The Wonder actress might have ruined a scene, she has contributed enough as the new character Princess Irulan in Dune: Part Two.
When asked to compare the character to some of her other memorable roles, Pugh told BBC News:
“She’s completely different to anything I’ve ever done before. Still with the same wisdom and bolshiness but it’s all subdued, so I got to spread wings in a different position maybe, and I got to have Denis lead me the way which everyone on this cast feels very lucky to have done so.”
Florence Pugh is not the only new actor who has joined the cast of the movie’s second part. Elvis star Austin Butler and Furiosa star Anya Taylor-Joy have also joined the star cast of the movie.
Dune: Part Two is hitting the cinemas on March 1, 2024.
