PUBLISHED NOV 2, 2018

Florence Pugh has been the talk of the town since her breakthrough role in the 2017 William Oldroyd directed movie, 'Lady Macbeth', and now she is playing a challenging role of an aspiring young actress who comes in association with a group of Mossad agents in Park Chan-wook's adaptation of John Le Carre's 1983 novel, 'The Little Drummer Girl'. However, the pressure is mounting for the 22-year-old actress who is set to star in the star-studded adaptation of Louis May Alcott's 1868 novel, 'Little Women'. The movie is being directed by the 'Ladybird' director, Greta Gerwig and is set to release on December 25, 2019, by Columbia Pictures.
