Florence Pugh has called out sexism in Hollywood as she said it is 'a different animal for women than it is for men' and urged people to challenge body shaming.
The Midsommar star, 30, made her acting debut in the 2014 drama film The Falling when she was 18 and has become an in-demand star in the years since.
But being a woman with such a huge public presence has its drawbacks, Florence has said.
Speaking to The Mirror, Florence shared her anger at how women are branded 'divas' for setting boundaries and how their bodies are constantly critiqued and examined.
'Hollywood is a different animal for women than it is for men,' she said. 'If it's a man, they are strong-willed - if it's a woman they're a diva.
'How often do you read online comments about men's body shapes? For women it's a daily occurrence.'

Florence went on to share that it is even more difficult for younger women as she urged her fellow female actors to challenge strict body standards.
Earlier this month, Florence went Instagram official with her boyfriend Finn Cole.
The actress, 30, attended a swanky Bulgari event in Milan this week where she was joined by the Peaky Blinders star, also 30.
The couple were first linked romantically in September 2024 after they were seen leaving an after-party together, but until now had not publicly confirmed their relationship.
As they went social media official they looked loved up as they posed together, with Finn gazing over adoringly at her.
Sharing the snaps Florence wrote: 'Bvlgari with my boys. Milan, I like your late night pizza #bvlgari #bvlgaripartner.'
At the event Florence stunned in a daring green thigh-split gown and accessorised with statement jewels from the luxury brand.
The show-stopping pleated and strapless gown showed off plenty of leg with its sultry design.
The star recently sparked rumours she is set to marry Finn , after she appeared to sport a flashy new engagement ring.

Earlier this month, Florence went Instagram official with her boyfriend Finn Cole - after the pair sparked engagement rumours
Florence and Finn have been friends for years and were first reported to be dating after the London premiere of Netflix hit The Perfect Couple in September 2024.
A source later revealed the pair had been getting to know each other away from the spotlight and planned to get hitched.
They told The Sun: 'They are both putting everything into their careers but have found something special between them.'
Daily Mail contacted Finn and Florence's representatives for comment.
While she wouldn't name Finn, Florence confirmed her relationship status during her October cover shoot with Vogue, and has confessed she is very much in love and is approaching their romance differently to things in the past.
She confirmed: 'I am [in a relationship]. OK, so something that I resonate with is that I believe that if magic is real, then it's falling in love.'
Florence candidly revealed that she and her partner were 'figuring it out' and said she is ready to start a family.
She added: 'We are figuring what we actually are. And I think for the first time, I'm not allowing myself to go on a roller-coaster.'
