WATCH: Florence Pugh stars in YUNGBLUD's new music video for 'Zombie'
Florence Pugh has starred in the music video for YUNGBLUD's latest single, 'Zombie.' '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, said YUNGBLUD, also known as Dominic Harrison. 'It's about the feeling of deterioration and ugliness; shutting out the world and the people we love out of the fear of becoming a burden or an embarrassment. 'We all want someone or something to comfort us, no matter how we are right now or who we become in the future, he added. But it's fucking scary.' The video sees Pugh acting as an overworked nurse, eventually sprouting angel wings. Known for her roles in Little Women, Don't Worry Darling, and Dune: Part Two, the Oscar-nominated actress also appeared in Rachel Chinouriri's music video for 'Never Need Me' last year. Harrison previewed Zombie for fans at a surprise gig in London back in March. It marks his third single ahead of his fourth album, Idols, out June 20. See the music video below:

The heart-wrenching video showcases the struggles of healthcare workers, with Florence portraying the overwhelming experience as a nurse consumed by grief, fatigue and the taxing need to remain positive. The Little Women actress said the decision to work with YUNGBLUD (formally Dominic Harrison) was "the easiest yes" she'd given. She shared her process, saying: "I always try to align myself and my career with people that inspire me. He inspires me but in an even more important way because his soul, authenticity of who he is and what he's making is so electric and full of love". Florence said the song "made [her] leap at the opportunity of collaborating" and that the shoot "was a dream", where the singer supported her "as hard as [she] was supporting him. That's true legendary leadership."

Being part of his music video for 'Zombie' feels surreal to me". Florence then shared that the unexpected duo "have been trying to find something to work together on for a while" and all it took was a "suuuper casual" voice note to convince Pugh squeeze the project into her "insanely busy schedule". "I haven't known him for long but I'm just so proud of this beautiful British talent," Florence said before thanking the singer "for making this love letter to nurses all around".

Cavell Charity's Instagram shared nurse s' comments, one reading: "As an oncology nurse, this made me ugly sob in a ball in the corner. I have cried on my bathroom floor over a patient I lost and cried happy tears with a different patient as they ring the bell after finishing chemo in the same day. "Nursing is one of the hardest yet most rewarding careers and this is such a beautiful portrayal of both the darkest and most joyful moments we go through. Thank you for this". Another wrote: "I've been a nurse for 23 years and no one ever talks about what goes on behind the professional mask. We are human too". "We all want someone or something to comfort us no matter how we are right now or who we become in the future. But it's f***ing scary," shared YUNGBLUD, who's inspiration was originally his grandmother "going through serious injury and trauma, leading her to become a different person to who she was before". The video's vulnerability conveys "the feeling of deterioration and ugliness; shutting out the world and the people we love out of the fear of becoming a burden or an embarrassment".
