Netflix fans only have days to watch ‘inspiring' Florence Pugh film
One of Florence Pugh's earliest and best movies is only on Netflix until the end of the month
Netflix subscribers have just a couple of weeks to stream one of Florence Pugh's heartwarming breakout films before it's removed.
This could be your last chance to watch it at no extra cost if you're already subscribed, so make sure you don't miss out.
Currently starring in the hit Marvel blockbuster Thunderbolts*, Pugh's success has skyrocketed in recent years thanks to roles in Oppenheimer, Midsommar and Little Women.
However, before starring in major Hollywood hits, she began her career with a number of smaller yet equally impressive indie films, such as Lady Macbeth and the horror film Malevolent.
Released in the same year as Midsommar, the underappreciated comedy-drama Fighting with My Family is currently on Netflix, but you've only got until Monday, 23rd June to watch it.
Directed by The Office legend Stephen Merchant and based on the inspiring story of Norwich-born wrestler Saraya Bevis, aka Paige, this inspiring drama follows her rise to success in the WWE from humble beginnings.
As Paige's career goes from strength to strength, her brother Zak Zodiac (played by Jack Lowden) struggles with her new celebrity status.
While Fighting with My Family isn't quite as well-known as some of Pugh's more recent hits, it's developed a passionate cult following and is well worth a watch before it leaves Netflix.
In addition to Pugh and Lowden, iconic British stars Lena Headey and Nick Frost star as Paige's parents, while US A-listers Vince Vaughn and Dwayne Johnson also make appearances.
Fans have been raving about the film since its release in 2019, with one five-star Google review admitting: 'Honestly obsessed with this film.
'Watched it about 10 times! So good to see a film about the youngest ever divas champion. The siblings in this film bring me to tears.'

Another fan gushed: 'One of the most inspiring movies I've ever seen. I thought the story of Paige journey was told exceptionally well - laughs and moments where you want to reach in the screen and hug some of the characters.
'I found myself literally screaming and cheering Paige at some points in the film. Truly a great movie and story! So proud of that woman!'
Movie buffs have also been championing the film on Letterboxd, with one reviewer penning: 'It will make you laugh until you cry, cry until you have no tears left, and it will make you want to hug your loved ones and never let go.
'Also can't write this review without mentioning that Florence Pugh shines like the sun in everything she dips her toes in, she is so incredible and I could watch her do anything for any length of time. I'm in such awe when I watch her.'
And a final fan called it 'extremely heartwarming, inspiring, funny and just all around fantastic!!!!'
Make sure you add Fighting With My Family to the top of your watchlist before it leaves streaming in just a couple of weeks.
Fighting With My Family is available on Netflix until Monday, 23rd June.
