Florence Pugh's name has been buzzing this weekend, due to her appearance at the 79th Venice International Film Festival. The star presented her upcoming movie with Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles, titled Don't Worry Darling, where she plays Alice. There was a lot of uncertainty about her presence at the event and as soon as she arrived all eyes went to her.
The 26-year-old and the cast were involved in multiple controversies before and after the festival. It all started when Wilde, the director, made some unfortunate comments about several situations on the set. This did not please the actress and she was very disappointed by the lack of professionalism during the filming.
But Florence has not let herself be overshadowed and has arrived at the red carpet wearing one of the most iconic dresses of the evening. Despite all the scandals, she has an extensive and interesting filmography, ranging from suspense and horror thrillers to comedies, and has even worked as a voice actress in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.
