We've Been Talking About How We're Getting The Summer Of Tom Holland In 2026. Now, It's Looking Like The Winter Of Florence Pugh

We've been talking about how we're getting the summer of Tom Holland, with the English-born actor set to star in Christopher Nolan's Odyssey movie and swinging back into cinemas in the upcoming Spider-Man sequel. The summer of 2026 will be huge for upcoming movies, but if you're looking ahead a few months, December is already shaping to belong entirely to someone else: Florence Pugh. Not just figuratively, either; she has two major films landing on the same weekend. Those would be the Russo brothers' Avengers: Doomsday, and Dune: Messiah, both slated for December 2026. Go ahead, let that sink in. Let's start with Doomsday, the next big swing in Marvel's Multiverse Saga. Pugh returns as Yelena Belova, the no-nonsense assassin who's gone from scene-stealing supporting role to franchise anchor. With much of the original Avengers lineup gone or rebooted, Yelena is positioned to take center stage in a way fans have been waiting for. And with Doomsday reportedly setting up the final pieces of Marvel's multiverse endgame, expect high stakes, massive cameos, and the Midsommar actress is in a full-fledged action lead capacity. She won't even have time to take off the combat boots before dropping into the sand again, because she's also reprising her role in some of the best sci-fi movies of recent memory, as Princess Irulan in Dune: Messiah, Denis Villeneuve's next chapter in the sweeping sci-fi saga. This sequel is expected to take a darker, more intimate turn as Paul Atreides' messianic rule begins to unravel. And if you've read the book, you know Irulan's role is only growing. She's no longer just window dressing in the imperial court, but a political. Two franchise juggernauts. Two wildly different roles. One actress anchoring both. That's not just a scheduling coincidence, but a flex. Studios rarely schedule two major blockbusters starring the same actor on the same opening weekend, but the Little Women star isn't your average star. She's earned a reputation for elevating every project she joins, whether it's the unsettling indie Midsommar, action-packed upcoming Marvel movie tentpoles, or the prestige ensemble of Oppenheimer. Now, she's entering rare air: a bona fide box office force and a critical powerhouse. Come next holiday season, it won't just be Christmas, it'll be Pugh Season. And like the Barbenheimer phenomenon before it, we're about to witness a cultural collision. Call it DoomsDune, Dune'sDay, Doone, whatever the name, it's the event of the season, and fans won't want to miss it. So yes, the summer of Tom Holland is happening. We'll get the suit, the quips, the billion-dollar box office, and maybe even a Spider-Verse twist or two. But when winter hits, it's Florence Pugh's turn to own the spotlight. And with Avengers: Doomsday and Dune: Messiah both set to dominate the cultural conversation, she could walk away from 2026 with not just the year's biggest hits, but its most iconic performances too. Mark your calendars! Dune: Messiah hits theaters on December 16, 2026, and just two days later, Avengers: Doomsday is coming to cinemas on the 18th. Don't miss out!

I Didn't Expect Florence Pugh's Next Role To Be A Nurse In A Yungblud Music Video, But I'm So Here For The Sweet Reactions Its Getting From Healthcare Workers
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. As of late, Florence Pugh has become a blockbuster star, between her role as Yelena Belova in new Marvel movies, including the recent release of Thunderbolts* and being officially in the cast for Avengers: Doomsday, and she's also set to reprise her Dune role in Messiah the same weekend. So I wasn't expecting to see her as the star of a music video on a random Friday, but she proved she can make us cry in a role that last about four minutes, too. Yungblud is a British pop punk star who has been on the music scene since around 2018, but I think he can officially say he's made it now that he has Florence Pugh in one of his music videos. Check out the new video for 'Zombie': Wow, I totally understand why Florence Pugh not only signed on for this, but was thought about for 'Zombie.' It's not your average video starring a famous actress as a nurse; it's really taking viewers into the mindset of what it feels like to be a healthcare worker day by day, and how harrowing it can be to see so much death all the time. While we'd assume when Yungblud made the song that he was thinking about his own experiences with 'looking like a zombie,' he gave a new meaning to the song on his upcoming album called 'Zombie' by making it about a young nurse just trying to get through the day. Upon the release of 'Zombie,' the music video has been labeled as a 'love letter to nurses.' In Pugh's own commentary on the video on her Instagram Stories, she thanked the punk star for having her 'on your journey.' She said she will 'always be grateful for this moment and forever impressed' by what he does and 'why' he does it. The comment section of the Instagram announcement video is also flooded with healthcare workers thanking Yungblud and Pugh for making the video. Check out some of them: 'As a Healthcare worker. THIS is a true representation of our daily struggles. We laugh. We cry. We scream. What a beautiful video and anthem. Thank you Dom.' - @thejennorater 'As a healthcare worker who worked in critical care during the pandemic and witnessed so much death. Thank you for this. It truly hit home. Ugly crying by how beautiful this was.' - @missgio_ 'As an icu nurse, I felt every scene! Thank you 🖤💋' - @ 'As a nurse, thank you ❤️ This is a beautiful song and video.' - @katherinefruendt 'This video really highlights the intense ups and downs with being a nurse. As a nurse, thank you, this was lovely to watch 🥹🤍' - @adellaturay 'As a nurse this makes me feel so seen and appreciated🥹🖤 I love you so much, thank you🖤' - @ Sure, Florence Pugh is a lot more likely to show up in a sparkly dress on her usual day to day, but her talent to make us feel deeply is already touching so many who can relate to the content of the video. Pugh has already made us cry for her Thunderbolts role and playing a young mom with cancer in We Live In Time, and this new role for 'Zombie' is another great performance from Ms. Pugh.

Marvel Studios Hall H Status Revealed for 2025 San Diego Comic-Con
Marvel Studios' status for the upcoming San Diego Comic-Con has been revealed, as has their plans for their legendary Hall H panels. According to a new report from THR's Heat Vision newsletter, Marvel will not be hosting a panel at Hall H this year at San Diego Comic-Con. With The Fantastic Four: First Steps set to release on the Friday of SDCC and Avengers: Doomsday now releasing closer to the end of 2026, Marvel seems to be taking a one-year break from their infamous panels. THR's reporting notes that the thinking within the company is that, with multiple films in production and set to release so close to the event, it didn't feel like the right time to have a panel. That doesn't mean they won't be at conventions, though. Marvel will be at this weekend's CCXP Mexico, and will still have a massive presence at SDCC, with panels focused on comics, games, and more still planned. Although Marvel Studios is usually a mainstay at SDCC, they have missed the show a handful of times. In 2011, the company sat out of a Hall H panel with The Avengers in production. 2015 and 2018 also marked years the studio stayed home, and then in 2020, 2021, and 2023, the company was away from the convention due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the Hollywood strikes, respectively. Last year, Marvel Studios returned to Hall H in glorious fashion. Not only did Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman appear, but the company also announced Avengers: Doomsday in a major way, with Robert Downey Jr. revealing he would be Doctor Doom at the end. SDCC is set to take place from July 24-27, 2025, in San Diego, California. (Source: The Hollywood Reporter)
