Up and coming star, Florence Pugh is starring in brand new TV drama, The Little Drummer Girl and got to snog Alexander Skarsgård! . Report by Lucy Jones.
Lucy, how are you?
I'm good, thank you.
I'm back! I haven't been here for months, so it's really lovely being back here with my
series as well.
Where have you been?
I've been in Budapest, and then I've just recently been in Boston, so I've kind of been travelling
a lot, but it's really lovely to be back here and be with the series.
I heard you saying that it might not happen. What do you mean by that?
It might not happen because I've been so busy. I've managed to be really... I was luckily
allowed to be involved in two projects, and my schedule, although amazing, it's incredibly
kind of jammed, and there was a moment where I wasn't really going to be able to make much
of the Little Drummer Girl press, so it's really lovely to be here on the night.
So how have you found since you started out? Things are changing. Are you finding it getting
easier every year?
I don't know if it's necessarily getting easier. I think people knowing what you've done, that's
a lovely feeling, and I don't think it's ever going to be easier for anyone in this. I think
you always have to keep on proving yourself, and I think you always have to keep on figuring
out what it is that you want to be, and how you want to act, and what projects you want
to be in, but I definitely have loved the feeling of knowing that people know what I've
done. That's a nice feeling, and I can enjoy that, and I can feel confident by that.
And what's the hardest thing about being on the big screen and being in this industry?
Hardest thing? You know what's so funny is even though I've done all these amazing projects,
they haven't come out yet, and people don't know what I've done yet, and even though I've
got a couple of really great credits to my name, I haven't been seen yet, so there haven't
really been very many major moments where I go, oh this is really tough, other than
the fact that the industry is tough, and it's hard, and it expects you to be a certain
way, and it expects you to work hard, but that's the thing that I love doing.
And there's finally Alexander. Wow. You got to have a smooch as well.
Oh my god. I love Alex, and he's a really good mate of mine, and we had a great time,
and I think we just had such a wonderful long period of time where we got to just buddy
up and be that couple on screen, and then just be such good mates off. It was a really
wonderful time, and he's so amazing, and so supportive, and so clever, and that's really nice.
Not a bad gig.
Not a bad gig. No.
Thank you very much.
