Florence Pugh stands out in an eye-catching mesh pink feather trim gown at The Wonder premiere

Florence Pugh stood out on Friday when she led the stars at the premiere of The Wonder at the London Film Festival.

The actress, 26, looked incredible as she made a daring entrance on the red carpet in a striking mesh pink feather dress.

She ramped up her height in a pair of gold strappy heels and carried a small quirky handbag at the star-studded event.

Decorated with ornate gold jewelry, Florence showed off her gorgeous ensemble by holding up each side of her dress.

The star sported a glamorous makeup look with a swipe of nude lipstick, while her blonde locks had slipped straight back.

Florence will then take on the role of a nurse in the historical drama The Wonder, which will be released on Netflix on November 16.

The role will be the actress’s first after the ongoing controversy surrounding her previous project, Don’t Worry Darling.

The film follows her character, English nurse Lib Wright, who travels to Ireland to care for a girl who miraculously survived months without food.

The official synopsis reads: ‘The Irish Midlands, 1862 – a young girl stops eating but miraculously stays alive and well. English nurse Lib Wright is taken to a small village to observe eleven-year-old Anna O’Donnell.

“Tourists and pilgrims gather to witness the girl who is said to have lived for months without food. Does the village harbor a saint who ‘survives on manna from heaven’ or are there more sinister motives at work?’

The psychological thriller, based on the novel by Emma Donoghue, is inspired by the 19th-century phenomenon of the ‘fasting girls’.

The film, starring Tom Burke, Toby Jones, Kila Lord Cassidy and Niamh Algar, is directed by Oscar winner Sebastián Lelio.

It comes amid the recent ‘Miss Flo’ drama during her latest film DWD, where her director Olivia Wilde called her that during a leaked phone call with her then-co-star Shia LaBeouf.

A report from Page six claimed in late July that Florence was angry with Olivia for interacting with lead actor Harry Styles during production – while still engaged to Jason Sudeikis – before breaking up in November.

“I can tell you that Flo seeing Olivia and Harry walking over each other on set didn’t go down well as Olivia was still with Jason when she first interacted with Harry,” the source said.

Others have noticed that Florence has posted little about the film on her social media accounts, which has also led to rumors of friction on set.

The actress missed the photocall for the film at the Venice Film Festival earlier this month and kept her distance from the director on the red carpet.

Florence was asked by an Italian journalist at the event what she found “inspiring” in the film and appeared to have a cunning count towards Olivia.

She replied, “I find it very inspiring to see a woman pull back and say ‘no’ and question everything. It’s very exciting to see a woman do that on and off the camera.”

Asked when she says ‘no’ off-camera, Pugh jokingly replied, ‘When do I say ‘no’? If someone says I can’t have cake.’

Rumors of tensions mounted after Olivia suggested in a leaked video this month that Florence should have a wake-up call.

The video was leaked after Shia refuted Olivia’s claim that he was fired from the project, and the footage shows Wilde encouraging LaBeouf to stick with the film rather than leaving the film, while also hinting at some apparent tension with Florence.

Olivia indicated an interview Variety where she said Shia LaBeouf’s trial was “not conducive to the ethos I demand in my productions” after the role was eventually recast with her now-boyfriend Harry.

In response, Shia provided alleged evidence to refute Wilde’s claims, including an email he sent to the director and a video she allegedly sent to him showing that he was running away from the film rather than being fired. .

Shia claims he “stopped the film due to lack of rehearsal time” on August 17, 2020, and forwarded it Variety two emails he says he recently sent to Wilde.

Some studio sources claimed in the publication that Shia had been fired, while another said his departure was due to a “collective acknowledgment that LaBeouf’s acting style did not fit well with Wilde’s approach as a director.”

THE WONDER will be released on Netflix on November 16
