Some of the biggest names in showbiz are getting ready to party at New York’s superglam Met Gala, including Florence Pugh.

But not content with causing a stir with a posh frock for the Metropolitan Museum of Art bash on Monday, the actress plans to debut a dramatic buzz cut hairstyle.

Florence had it done for upcoming film We Live In Time, in which she will co-star with Spider-Man: No Way Home star Andrew Garfield, The Sunreported.

She is due to reveal her new look at the event, having covered it up with a blonde wig on a night out in New York on Thursday.

Florence looked stunning in a sheer dress for the Tiffany & Co store launch.

A source said: “She has shaved her head and she looks absolutely incredible.

“She had the crop for her new film.

“Florence and her team are planning for her to make a real stir when she arrives at the Met Gala with her new look.

“She steals the show at most big events but arguably this will be a standout look and the talk of the Met Gala.

“There is a back-up wig available in case she gets cold feet but she looks amazing, so her team are hoping she takes the plunge.”

Florence was snapped in London earlier this month shooting her latest film with Garfield.

The storyline is a closely guarded secret but the movie has been billed as a “funny, deeply moving and immersive love story”.

Pugh has become a household name with major roles in 2019’s mystery thriller Midsommar and romantic drama Little Women, and this year’s thriller Don’t Worry Darling alongside Harry Styles.

And her schedule is only getting busier.

Pugh will also appear later this year with Timothee Chalamet in adventure drama Dune: Part Two, and with Cillian Murphy in Oppenheimer, a biopic about the atomic bomb inventor of the same name.

She will also get to work on Marvel’s Thunderbolts.

Pugh will be back as Yelena Belova, who has appeared in 2021 superhero flick Black Widow and Marvel-based Disney+ series Hawkeye.

The actress previously revealed she likes to mix up her roles, explaining: “I’ve never seen myself as a one-trick pony.

“I don’t want to do the same thing over and over again.

“The reason why I came into this industry was small indie films and I appreciated the craft and learnt from them, and then I get to work with massive crews, massive directors and massive films that go for months.”
