Watch Florence Pugh and Yungblud pour pints for customers at London pub
Florence Pugh surprised punters at The Devonshire in Piccadilly on Friday, stepping behind the bar to pour pints alongside singer Yungblud. The 29-year-old Marvel star, fresh from appearing in Yungblud's music video for his single Zombie, was seen chatting with customers and mastering the art of the perfect pour. Footage shows Pugh receiving cheers after successfully pouring a pint of Guinness, asking, "whose is this?" She later jokingly apologised after a less successful attempt, remarking, "I'm sorry". In another clip, she can be seen learning the ropes from a staff member, describing her initial effort as "a bit lumpy". Pugh most recently starred in Marvel's Thunderbolts as Yelena Belova, with other roles in Little Women (2019), Don't Worry Darling (2022), and Dune: Part Two (2024), and previously appeared in Rachel Chinouriri's music video for Never Need Me.

Florence Pugh and Yungblud leave onlookers baffled as they pour pints at pub
Hollywood actress Florence Pugh spent her Friday night pouring pints of Guinness in a very popular London pub alongside Yungblud Marvel star Florence Pugh delighted London pub-goers with an unexpected shift behind the bar at The Devonshire in Piccadilly on Friday. The 29-year-old actress was spotted pouring pints and mingling with customers as part of a surprise appearance tied to the release of Yungblud's new music video for his single Zombie. Dressed down and playful, Pugh received cheers after nailing the pour on a pint of Guinness, proudly asking: 'Whose is this?' Her next attempt didn't go quite as smoothly however after serving up a frothy glass, she laughed and admitted: 'I'm sorry.' In another clip, she jokes her first effort was 'a bit lumpy' while being coached by bar staff. Her appearance comes on the same day Zombie dropped - a raw, emotional track from Yungblud's upcoming album Idols, out June 20. Pugh stars in the video as a grief-stricken, emotionally exhausted health worker, donning angel wings in a symbolic portrayal of inner collapse. 'The song was written initially about my grandmother going through serious injury and trauma, leading her to become a different person to who she was before,' Yungblud, real name Dominic Harrison, explained. 'It's about the feeling of deterioration and ugliness… shutting out the world and the people we love out of fear of becoming a burden or an embarrassment. It's f****** scary.' Pugh, known for her powerful roles in Little Women, Don't Worry Darling, Dune: Part Two, and most recently Marvel's Thunderbolts, brings her signature emotional depth to the role. She previously appeared in Rachel Chinouriri's Never Need Me video, showing an ongoing interest in music collaborations. Yungblud, 27, is no stranger to public antics. Earlier this year, he pulled a similar stunt by serving drinks at the Hawley Arms in Camden. With two UK No. 1 albums (Weird! and his self-titled record) and a recent 'Disruptor of the Year' award from the Northern Music Awards under his belt, the artist continues to blend music with rebellion and raw emotion. It comes after the singer told The Mirror that he's coming out fighting with his new music. He's confronted his demons, taken up boxing and is battling against toxic masculinity. And what he delivers with album Idols really packs a punch. 'I really had to face myself… figure it out and face it,' he tells. And Yungblud reckons he has really grown in the process. 'I would use food and alcohol to distract myself and push things down,' he says. 'The album is a mirror to that. I have singing lessons. I don't drink as much and I've been getting better at sleeping. I've been getting better at being able to navigate this whole thing better – that's been epic.' Having previously opened up about his battle with body dysmorphia, the Doncaster rocker –told how he has now 'cut out people that were not good' for him, and that posing topless for his album promo is a 'kickback against those people'. He's not shying away from hard topics to climb the charts either. He says: 'Me and my friends were talking about sexuality. It was what young people were talking about but it wasn't being represented in music at all. It was kind of like, 'Oh, don't sing about that. It's too political to go on Radio One.' 'I was like, 'This is what people want to hear, this is what I want to say, this is what I want to sing about'.'

This overlooked Florence Pugh drama movie is about to leave Prime Video — and it deserves way more love
Florence Pugh has delivered some incredible performances in everything from 'Midsommar' to 'Little Women' to 'We Live in Time,' but it's her quiet, unassuming role in 'A Good Person' that hit me hardest. And I'm willing to bet it's one performance you haven't seen. Released in 2023 and written/directed by Zach Braff, 'A Good Person' went unnoticed. It didn't make a big splash at the box office, and despite Pugh's deeply affecting performance, it never quite reached the level of attention it deserved. Which is why it's a shame that this emotionally layered drama is about to disappear from Prime Video on May 29. The first time I saw it, I didn't expect it to stay with me the way it did. Pugh plays Allison, a young woman whose life is derailed after a tragic accident. What follows isn't a neatly wrapped redemption arc but a story that's messy and painfully human. Her scenes with Morgan Freeman, who plays a grieving father navigating his own demons, are among the most emotionally honest I've seen in years. So before it leaves Prime Video, give 'A Good Person' a chance. It might not be the Florence Pugh movie people talk about most but it just might be the one that lingers the longest. Allison (Florence Pugh) is a vibrant young woman with a promising future, engaged to her high school sweetheart, Nathan (Chinaza Uche). However, her life takes a tragic turn when she causes a car accident that results in the deaths of Nathan's sister, Molly (Nichelle Hines), and Molly's husband. Allison survives but is left grappling with immense guilt and physical injuries. A year later, Allison is battling a severe addiction to painkillers and living with her mother, Diane (Molly Shannon), who struggles to support her daughter's recovery. Meanwhile, Daniel (Morgan Freeman), Nathan and Molly's father and a former police officer, is raising his teenage granddaughter, Ryan (Celeste O'Connor), who is dealing with the loss of her parents. The lives of Allison and Daniel intersect at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, leading to an unexpected and complex friendship. Together, they confront their shared grief and personal demons, seeking forgiveness and a path forward. I'm a very sensitive person, so it doesn't take much for a movie to get a few tears out of me. But 'A Good Person' had me full-on sobbing at one point, which just proves how emotionally powerful this drama really is. There are so many layers that slowly peel back over the course of the story, it naturally pulls you through the motions, meaning one minute you're feeling hopeful, and the next, your eyes are puffy from crying. 'A Good Person' begins with a happy moment, where Allison and her fiancé, Nathan, are having the time of their lives at their engagement party, with their family and friends surrounding them. It's a heart-warming moment, but also a bittersweet one, considering you know something bad is about to happen. But that's one of the movie's strengths. It doesn't drag out these happy scenes, because tragedy can happen at the most unexpected times, and it makes the car crash scene even more devastating. The emotion really stems from its central characters and their personal journeys, especially Allison, who not only shatters her own life, but the lives of those around her. That includes Daniel, who would've been her father-in-law. Both of their stories interconnect in a powerful way. But what's most impressive about 'A Good Person' is that none of these characters are actually good, they're just broken. Allison is in denial and spiraling into addiction, while Daniel is struggling to reach his rebellious granddaughter. They are fractured people, and fate brings them back into each other's lives. While most of the movie is quite heavy — especially the scenes of Allison falling back into a bad habit and not receiving the proper help she needs (including a mother who doesn't support her in the right way) — there is hope buried beneath the tragedy. And as a viewer, when you're made to witness the character's worst moments, you can't help but latch onto any sliver of promise. If you're someone who can't watch a movie that's harrowing all the way through, I can say that it gets lighter, and the ending definitely brings back a sense of warmth (which is much needed after such a heavy story). How unique this movie feels will probably depend on how many similar emotional dramas you've already seen and, as with many stories like this, personal experience plays a big role in how it resonates. That said, Braff does lean into melodrama at times, where a more restrained touch might have worked better. (The emotionally intense midpoint, in particular, feels a bit overdone.) But even with those moments, he still delivers enough raw, authentic scenes between characters to balance things out. I'm surprised that 'A Good Person' received the green splat on Rotten Tomatoes. It has a rating of 57% from over 100 critics, but I'm happy that audiences gave it a much stronger score of 96%. The viewer consensus reads: 'With a profound story and some really great performances, A Good Person is a tear-jerking drama with tons of heart.' Unfortunately, this drama did get severely overlooked, and so I hope people get the chance to watch it before it leaves Prime Video this month. Florence Pugh delivers one of her most nuanced roles to date, showing a different side of her talent that's both vulnerable and deeply compelling. So if you're in the mood for a movie that's both hopeful and heart-wrenching, stream 'A Good Person' while you still can, as you might be surprised by how much it sticks with you.
