But Pugh wouldn’t accept confinement by such limiting ideas. She appreciates movies of all sizes and budgets, from blockbuster franchises like Dune and Marvel to obscure indies that few people have heard of.

“When I first signed onto Marvel, lots of people from the indie-film world were all telling me that I was never going to go back to small movies again, and it always kind of wound me up. Because I think there’s beauty in all types of those films.

Pugh refuses to limit herself to one specific genre and has always known that she wants to explore and experiment with various types of movies.

“There’s beauty in the massive, epic storylines like Dune, like Marvel, like even Oppenheimer that I did. They’re amazing mega-movies. And then there’s also beauty in all these little ones that not everyone is going to see but are going to affect the right person at the right time. I’ve never, ever only thought that I was going to just do one type of movie. I’ve always known that I want to dabble in all areas.”

Florence Pugh expressed her concerns about “accidentally” upsetting someone while trying to do her acting job. Despite some reservations, Pugh remains committed to her craft and hopes to continue working in the film industry for many years.

“But I would feel too terrified that I’d accidentally say the wrong thing or accidentally screw up someone’s day because I said, ‘Maybe not that way.’ I don’t know. All the things that I have personally felt before while acting. I think I’ll probably just need a few more years of practicing the knack of leading a ship into a storm and pretending like everything’s fine. But I would love to one day.”

This novel viewpoint reflects Florence Pugh’s natural curiosity and courage. She’s not shy about taking on hard parts in high-profile productions, but she’s also game for the gritty work required in the independent films that put her to the test and challenge her to grow as an actress.
