The 27-year-old Marvel star, Florence Pugh in a recent Vanity Fair interview, opened up about not entertaining any questions regarding her last year’s publicized psychological thriller film, Don’t Worry Darling.

She told the outlet,
“Ideally, I don’t really want to be going down the Don’t Worry Darling conversation because this whole release for The Wonder has been so positive.”
She continued,
“And I’ve been really excited to talk about that. I don’t really feel the need to go into the nitty-gritty details of Don’t Worry Darling. So, if it’s okay, I’ll probably just let that one sit.”
