Headline: Florence Pugh didn't want character to wear 'super suit' for death-defying Thunderbolts jump
Caption:
Florence Pugh didn't want her Thunderbolts character to wear her "super suit" when she jumped off the world's second-tallest building because the protective outfit didn't fit her mental state. The new Marvel movie opens with Pugh's character Yelena Belova sitting on the roof of the Merdeka 118 skyscraper in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, contemplating her life before jumping off the building. The British actress, who begged Marvel bosses to let her do the stunt herself, insisted upon wearing a black tracksuit instead of Yelena's "super suit" for the scene to show her character's dark mental state.
