Carey Mulligan brought out one of her most breathtaking looks tonight for the 2021 Oscars. The Best Actress nominee wore a gold Valentino crop top and skirt, with her hair up. She posed on the red carpet with her husband Marcus Mumford. The entire look gave off modern princess vibes:
Mulligan spoke to Variety earlier about what drew her to taking the lead role as Cassie in Promising Young Women, the part that got her tonight’s Oscar nod, and how it fits in with her other work.
“Promising Young Woman exists in its own genre, and that role is so unique,” Mulligan said. “I felt like definitely I wanted to be a part of something contemporary that was an original idea and not an adaptation, as much as I love those. I’ve been resistant to playing characters that are just the wife or the girlfriend, and I’ve avoided that fairly consistently so far. You can still understand a character and go with them on their journey even if you don’t approve of them or feel totally comfortable. I’m trying to find characters who are a little less straightforward, and you don’t get all the answers. I want to be constantly surprising the audience. I loved working with comedians. I feel so open to that kind of stuff, but, for me, it’s never struck the right tone. I want to be in a Richard Curtis film and live in a lovely apartment. I know Richard Curtis, and I say this to him all the time. He knows.”
She added later, “The reason I wanted to be in it is because I felt it was nothing I’d ever read or seen before. And I want people to feel that feeling that I felt when I read it: of I can’t believe this concoction can work. And what a thrill. It’s a magic trick, and you don’t see that very much these days. You kind of always understand how the magician’s done it. And with this, I just don’t think you do.”
