Margaret Qualley, who famously appeared in the Oscar-winning comedy/fantasy Poor Things and 2019’s Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood, among others, is stepping out of her comfort zone with the recent horror sci-fi The Substance. Speaking to PEOPLE, the actress revealed why she found her role as Sue—a younger version of her co-star Demi Moore’s character, Elisabeth Sparkle—challenging.  

Her character, who is hypersexualized throughout the film, is complex to portray, but that’s what Qualley strives for. “I think I’ve intentionally gone the other direction throughout my career,” she told the outlet. The body horror film features plenty of nudity and explicit scenes as the two women who share the same conscience inject themselves with an illegal serum. 

“I knew it was going to be a big challenge for me,” the actress said. However, she also admitted that nudity and obscenity serves a huge purpose for the story. “It’s a road you have to go down in order to bring this to life. And I was excited about that challenge,” she added. 

Ultimately, as an actor, it’s essential to push one’s limits to keep things interesting and exciting. “I think you in the end, gain more of yourself when you face that whatever might be an individual’s discomfort, fear,” she said. “I don’t really look at it as fear as much as just vulnerability.”

Oh, what a day it was! September 22, 2024, witnessed the historic, sold-out bookings of Coldplay’s India Tour 2025, and all within hours. On Sunday, the Let Somebody Go band announced the Mumbai leg of their Music Of The Spheres World Tour 2025, and their Indian fans were over the moon. Initially, the dates announced were January 18 and 19, 2025, but due to massive demand, another show was added at noon on January 21st.

However, despite offering three shows, the tickets sold out in no time, leaving many fans disappointed. The ticketing website crashed initially, some fans got stuck at the payment stage, and many couldn’t get through the queue. Social media quickly filled with frustrated fans expressing their helplessness at not being able to secure tickets.

One angry fan wrote, “I have just been crying. All those people hoarding the tickets just to resell them for more money. Bhagwan maaf nahi karega (crying emojis).” Another commented, “Let’s apply for the post of a security guard at DY Patil Stadium. I guess that’s the only hope left now.” A third added, “Genuinely so gutted. People who couldn’t name five songs have got tickets.”
