Little Women and Midsommar star Florence Pugh is all set to star in a new adaptation of Emma Donoghue’s novel The Wonder. Donoghue’s novel Room was adapted in 2015 for the Oscar-winning film of the same name.
The Wonder revolves around a young girl in 1859 Ireland, who stops eating and drinking but still lives without ailments. A nurse named Lib Wright travels to the small village in the Irish Midlands to witness the strange phenomena. What ensues is a historical drama, a biting psychological thriller, and a meditation on good and evil, reported Deadline.
A Fantastic Woman director Sebastian Lelio will direct The Wonder from a script by Alice Birch. Birch wrote the screenplay of the 2016 drama Lady Macbeth, also starring Pugh.
