Los Angeles: At the London premiere of Black Widow on June 29, actor Florence Pugh confesses that her first day filming Black Widow was a sweaty experience. "Day one, Scarlett had already been filming for a week, and our day one was me throwing her against a cabinet and we both had our hands in each other's armpits. And it was in that moment that I was like, 'Oh, my God, I have a sweaty armpit. And Scarlett Johansson is touching me.' So, yeah, once that ice is broken, you know, best mates. Weird first day, though, to start with."
Pugh plays Yelena Belova, the sister of Scarlett Johansson's character, Natasha Romanova. The actor says "thank goodness" she has been getting positive reviews for her accent in the film.

The theatrical release of Black Widow has got Pugh excited who said, "It's such an epic that it feels only natural that you'd watch this at the cinema on a big screen with surround sound." She recently wrapped filming on Kill Your Darlings directed by Olivia Wilde and is rumored to be a contender to play Madonna in an upcoming biopic by the performer, directed by the Material Girl herself.
Pugh, whose career has been on an upswing, is also said to be playing pop diva Madonna in an upcoming biopic. When asked about the same, the actor said, "Oh, I love Madonna. I love the thought of her making a film, I love thought of the film being made of her, just the fact that my name is even in the same sentence as her is insane. I don't know what's to come. I wish I did. But, yeah, I mean, all of the amazing feelings, obviously."
