Florence Pugh Reveals she Stepped Back from Acting to Prioritize Self-care
Florence Pugh‘s looking out for Number 1 on the call sheet … saying she decided to take a break from acting after waking up one morning and realizing she’s missing out on a ton of life.
The actress talked to British Vogue about trying to re-establish a work/life balance … saying she took the first break of her career this summer because she’s been jumping from project to project with limited time off recently.
Pugh — who calls herself a “work maniac” — says she was feeling absolutely exhausted … and, she’s worried she’s too focused on work and not enough on really enjoying her life.
FP says she wants to have a long-term career … but, recognizes that won’t happen if she burns herself out — hence, taking some PTO.
She’s back in the spotlight now … currently on the press tour for the romance-drama “We Live in Time” alongside her costar Andrew Garfield. The movie is set to come out next month.

It’s just the latest flick in a packed film schedule that included “Oppenheimer,” “Dune: Part 2,” and Marvel’s “Thunderbolts” — all big-budget productions that took a while to film. She’s got a couple projects in pre-production, too … including a remake of the James Dean classic “East of Eden.”
Seems Pugh’s thoroughly refreshed from her sabbatical and ready to get back to the 9 to 5!!!
