Black Widow star Florence Pugh is in Ireland filming a new movie for Netflix called The Wonder.

And the streamer have just released a first look image of the actress on set.

The film is an adaptation of the book written by Irish author Emma Donoghue.

Set in 1859, The Wonder follows the story of an English nurse, played by Florence.

She’s summoned to a tiny village to observe what some are claiming as a medical anomaly or a miracle.

An 11 year old girl is said to have survived months without food.

Is the village harbouring a saint, 'surviving on manna from heaven,' or are there more ominous motives at work?

The story is inspired by the 19th century phenomenon of the, "fasting girls."
