In "The Midnight Library," Pugh is set to portray Nora Seed, a woman who inadvertently stumbles upon a mysterious library existing between life and death. Within its shelves, each book chronicles a different version of her life, offering Nora countless opportunities to explore alternate realities. In addition to her starring role, Pugh will also serve as a producer on the film.
The screenplay for the film adaptation will be co-penned by Olivier Award winner Laura Wade and Tony Award-nominated playwright Nick Payne. The project entered pre-production this past fall and is slated to commence principal photography in early 2027.
