There are few people whose 2019s were more successful than Florence Pugh. The actor starred in three well-received films: Fighting with My Family, Midsommar, and Little Women. Unsurprisingly, Pugh received a BAFTA nomination earlier this week for her role as Amy March in Little Women, a performance that's being praised for making the role well-rounded and likable for the first time in the classic tale's history. Pugh is going up against Laura Dern (Marriage Story), Scarlett Johansson (Jojo Rabbit), Margot Robbie (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood), and Margot Robbie again (Bombshell). Yesterday, Pugh took to Instagram to celebrate the news alongside some trusty cacti.
"2020 has already outdone itself. From all at @bafta, thank you for all of your recognition. Alongside my friends and legends I look up to. This is special. I'm already planning which small snacks to put in my handbag!! What a day," Pugh wrote.
Many celebrities commented on the post:
"Yay 🙌🙌🙌🙌," Lena Headey wrote.
"Rightly so! You're a joy to watch both on and off screen. Fly, girl, flyyyy💗💗💗," Maisie Williams added.
2020 is only going to get more exciting for Pugh as she'll soon be co-starring in the Marvel Cinematic Universe's upcoming Black Widow as Yelena alongside Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow/Natasha Romonaff), David Harbour (Alexei/The Red Guardian), O-T Fagbenle (Mason), and Rachel Weisz (Melina). Cate Shortland directed the film with a screenplay from Ned Benson and Jac Schaeffer.
