Florence Pugh continues her rapid ascend on Hollywood rankings with her newest role: Princess Irulan in Denis Villenueve’ “Dune: Part Two.” The film is projected to be one of the biggest movies of the year, and it has already received rave reviews.
Of course, this won’t be Pugh’s first hit. After her breakthrough role in the 2016 period drama “Lady Macbeth,” she has starred in titles such as “Midsommar,” “Little Women,” “The Wonder” and, most recently, Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer.”
But the 28-year-old star won’t stop anytime soon, and will be seeing her in several upcoming projects. And not only as an actor, as she is also trying her hand behind the scenes as a producer.
