50 free Florence Pugh trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
Florence Pugh was born in Oxford in 1996, spent part of her childhood in southern Spain for the sake of her lungs, posted cover songs on YouTube as Flossie Rose, and made her film debut while still in sixth form. Lady Macbeth won her a British Independent Film Award at 21; 2019 brought Fighting with My Family, Midsommar and Little Women in a single year and an Oscar nomination for Amy March. This quiz covers the breakthrough, the Marvel years as Yelena Belova, the Dune and Oppenheimer ensembles, the head she shaved for We Live in Time, the songs she wrote for A Good Person, the Merdeka 118 jump she insisted on doing herself, and the public-image chapters: the sheer Valentino gown, the Zach Braff relationship, the Venice premiere of Don't Worry Darling. There are also questions drawn from the films themselves — the Hårga's 90-year festival, the name Paige took from Charmed, the Bocuse d'Or, and the Victory Project.
