Florence Pugh On Zach Braff Writing ‘A Good Person’ Role For Her.

I love that you brought your granny with you. Always, always Granny Pat. That is so sweet. I love your look tonight. Thank you. You always wow us with the fashion. Thank you. I love to see you show up and tell me about your look tonight. I'm wearing Valentino of course. It's absolutely stunning. Thank you. I was sobbing, like emotional rollercoaster with this film. Good. Your performance is amazing. It's awful to say good at that, right? Amazing. Thank you very much. Zach wrote this from the heart. Yeah. The role was written for you. What does that mean to you? And how proud are you of the performance that you delivered? Oh, it's a huge honor to have something written for you. And it's a huge honor to have it written by someone that knows so much about you. Knows how you perform. Knows how far they can push it. It also just means that there's this great level of safety on set. Because I feel trusted. I feel held. As did many, well all of the actors on set. You know, it's a hard thing to come to a script like this. And know how far you have to go with a character. And so, you know, that wouldn't have been possible without the safety and the care and the love that Zach brought to set every day. It was heavy, but you brought the moments of levity too. Yes. Your singing talent. Amazing. Thank you. Amazing. Tell me about writing songs for the film. Yeah, it was a first for me. I've never written a song for a character, especially for a character to perform. And it was truly a unique experience. I've never, ever done that before. And it was a really interesting way for me to also get into a role. For me to understand the head space. And to try and imagine myself in that position. And that's just what came out of me. And Zach wanted it in the movie. So, I feel very grateful to have that opportunity. And then, of course, I got to record them as Florence outside of the movie. How I wanted them to sound. Not Allison. And they're going to be on the soundtrack. That's incredible. You just keep growing and growing and surprising us. It's hard to believe that this is your first time. I want to show you a video. This is going viral on TikTok. This is my first time? I am obsessed. Sorry, I have to show it. Oh, I know that one well. Don't you worry. This is going viral on TikTok. Why? Because I think people are like, she has so much to give. And it's incredible. You're incredible. That was me at like nine, I think. Or ten, yeah. What do you remember about that? Your passion for music. Oh, my God. It actually doesn't feel like that long ago. But my mom would record. She would film my guitar lessons because I would never remember to practice. And then by the time that I'd start practicing, I would have forgotten everything. And so she would film me and be like, you can't pretend that you've forgotten because I haven't. And then accidentally along the way, she started putting them on YouTube, not really knowing quite what YouTube was. And I ended up getting this weird, wonderful fan base. Flossy Rose? I know. Where did that come from? Well, I am Flossy. My name is Florence Rose. And so I became Flossy Rose. I hope you release an album or something soon. Well, it starts with the two songs that are on the soundtrack. So I'm very proud and excited about that. And I know you admire Zach a lot as a director and as a friend. Yeah. Thinking back to Scrubs, his beginnings, have you watched him in Scrubs and thinking about how far he's come now? It's funny. Out of all of the work that he's done, that's the last one that I was really attached to. So he hates that. He was like, what do you mean you didn't used to watch Scrubs? But I appreciate it. And I appreciate he's a man of many talents. But yeah, I think for me, his script writing and his directing on this one especially and all the films that he's directed before, there's a reason why we keep on coming back to it. There's a reason why he can discuss such dark and depressing topics because he's really good at bringing the light and the levity. So yeah.
