‘I Want Vanity Out Of The Picture

Florence Pugh, 27, is known for her extravagant looks on the red carpet. However, when it comes to her appearance on screen, the “Little Women” star prefers to accept a face without make-up to remove any distractions that Hollywood glamor may bring to the audience.
In a recent interview with Radio Time, the Oxford-born actor revealed his conscious decision to “control his image” in the industry. His daring act of shaving his head for the upcoming romantic drama, “We Live in Time,” was part of that effort.
“I deliberately chose to look like that. I wanted the swagger out of the picture,” Pugh said of her dramatic hairstyle, which she debuted at the Met Gala in May. “Hollywood is very glamorous – especially for women – and it’s hard for viewers to see that,” she told the outlet, per Daily Mail.

She continued, “Whenever I don’t have to be glam or put on a full face of makeup, I fight to keep it up. It helps the audience. Pride is gone. The only thing people can see is your raw face.”
The desire to control his image has been part of Pugh’s journey from the beginning of his career. “I’ve always fought to control my image,” she revealed. “It helps me when I wear less make-up because I don’t sparkle on screen. I’m allowed to make ugly faces like it’s more acceptable.”

Since her breakthrough role in 2016’s dark indie project, “Lady Macbeth,” Pugh has fearlessly navigated a diverse career path. With an Oscar nomination under her belt for her extraordinary portrayal of Amy March in Greta Gerwig’s adaptation of “Little Women,” Pugh has proven her versatility in Marvel’s “Black Widow” and Olivia Wilde’s highly controversial “Don’t Worry Darling .”
Unafraid to take on any role, no matter the size or ambiguity, Pugh bravely accepts each character with a brave spirit and takes responsibility “if it goes wrong.”
“There were things where I don’t know how I mustered up the courage – but I pushed myself off the cliff and hoped the wings would come out,” he said, per Daily Mail.
His latest venture took him to new heights when he starred in Christopher Nolan’s epic film, “Oppenheimer,” in which he played the role of Jean Tatlock, an American doctor who had an important relationship with J. Robert Oppenheimer, the mastermind behind the creation of the atomic bomb.

In an exclusive interview with Digital Spy, Pugh offers valuable insight into his journey as an actor and how he managed to avoid being typecast as a “one-trick pony.” However, he chose an important role that shaped his career and aspirations.
Opening up about her transformative experience, Pugh stated, “Lady Macbeth was probably what pushed me into what I wanted to do and what I wanted to be.” He continued, “But also, it’s weird because I was supposed to be doing an American TV show at the time, and it got pulled.”
She recalls the pivotal moment that would change her trajectory, adding, “Three weeks later, when I decided what kind of actress I wanted to be in the industry, Shaheen Baig sent me this audition for Lady Macbeth.”
