McHugh plays Sprite, a master of illusion in Marvel's new superhero epic directed by Chloe Zhao. While she, like her cosmic counterparts, is over 7,000 years old, she's trapped in the body of a 12-year-old girl.
"When I first got the part, the only thing that I knew about was like rumors. So Angie was rumored to be in it," she explained."I knew Richard was in the movie, wasn't sure about anyone else." "Working with adults in general, especially, an A-list cast like this, I put a lot of pressure on myself to really live up to the expectations of all these other incredible experienced actors," said McHugh."I felt they all really made me push myself to be on their level."
When it comes to Sprite's regular day clothes, however, McHugh was less enthused. As the press notes explain, the character is drawn to menswear, opting for waistcoats and trousers as a way of exuding a more adult appearance despite her young body. "It was a few paragraphs of Babylonian actually. I had a dialect coach, who helped me and she was actually like, 'Wow, you got it pretty quickly.' I really stressed myself out about it," said the actress."I'm on a Marvel set, I'm not gonna screw up my lines and it was also a speech in front of a bunch of extras on a set. Everyone had to look at me like what I was saying was so cool and no one had any idea what I was saying.
