It seems that rowdy fans aren’t hurling objects at just musicians anymore. The unruly behaviour has made its way to the movie world – more specifically, to Oscar nominee Florence Pugh‘s face.

Pugh, known for Midsommar and Little Women, joined co-stars Zendaya, Austin Butler and Timothee Chalamet to promote Dune: Part 2 at the Brazil fan event CCXP over the weekend. CCXP ran from Thursday to Sunday (Dec 3) and was held at Sao Paulo Expo.
