Florence Pugh joined the MCU as Yelena Belova in Black Widow and played the character again in Hawkeye. She'll reprise the character once again in the Marvel movie Thunderbolts next year. She said in a new interview that, after joining the MCU, she was told her she would never star in a smaller-scale independent film again.
«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,» Pugh said in the latest issue of Total Film.
Pugh, who earned an Academy Award nomination for Little Women, said she finds «beauty» in all types of films, from small, indie films to large-scale blockbusters.
«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,» Pugh said.
She's doing just that. Pugh will be seen next in Zach Braff's relatively low-budget independent movie, A Good Person, before appearing in blockbusters like Dune 2 and Oppenheimer later this year. Check out a trailer for A Good Person below.
As for the MCU, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is the latest entry in the series. Next up is Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 in May and then The Marvels in November.
