A gift to Florence from Scarlett Johansson:
EURwebScarlett told Pugh that she needed a lot of stamina as the shoot would belong. Scarlett said that Florence was struggling with her landing and also completing the complicated moves, in the early days of the shoot. Pugh was an athletic person and was fantastic with the choreography.
Scarlett was happened to tell Pugh that she wasn’t a professional athlete. She assured Pugh that they were going to sharpen all of her moves. The only important thing Pugh has to care about is her performance because it is what she wants to add to that character.
Scarlett remembered the advice given to her by her frequent co-star Sam Jackson. He once told Scarlett that stunts and complicated moves are should be done by professionals. He told Scarlett that he doesn’t want her to break by practicing Muay Thai in four days. It’s just not going to happen.
Bringing emotion to the character is the most important thing he wanted from his co-stars. And Scarlett said it was the most important thing she tried to gift Florence.
