Florence Pugh is hesitant to play another role like the one she portrayed in 2019 horror “Midsommar,” saying she felt like she “abused” herself and was “broken for a long while afterwards.”

Florence Pugh is getting candid about setting boundaries through her work. The 29-year-old starred in the 2019 horror film, “Midsommar,” but revealed that the project was so emotionally taxing that she doesn’t think she could do something like that again.

Florence Pugh says she "definitely abused myself" while making the Ari Aster horror movie "Midsommar," released in 2019.

Back in March 2023, Pugh, who earned an Oscar nomination for 2019's Little Women, echoed that her time on Midsommar was draining. The film also starred Will Poulter, Jack Reynor, William Jackson Harper and Vilhelm Blomgren.

Florence Pugh said during a recent interview on the “Reign with Josh Smith” podcast (via People) that she is not likely to do a role like “Midsommar” again because she feels like she abused herself while playing the film’s protagonist Dani,

Florence Pugh can't play roles like Dani in 'Midsommar' again as she "abused herself too much" due to putting herself through psychological pain.
