Carey Mulligan revealed that she marked one of the ‘wish list’ by synchronizing her lips with Britney Spears in her new film, Promising Young Woman.
The 35-year-old actress explained that she performed alongside the 39-year-old pop princess in a Paris Hilton song in a ‘fun’ scene for her latest ‘dark’ film.
Speaking on the next episode of The Graham Norton Show on Friday night, Carey said: ‘It feels so good to be in such a dark film, but fun at the same time.

The mother of two called the film “difficult to describe”, but added that the script was the “best” she had read.
She says: “It’s the best script I’ve read. It’s amazing and has so many things – romantic comedy, suspense, revenge road movie. It is very difficult to describe.
‘It’s full of comedians – I’m the only person who isn’t funny at all and on the third day of shooting, I was like, “Is this your life all the time, just laughing? What have I been doing? Sad movies ! “It was great and I had a lot of fun. ‘

Carey’s next film was premiered at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival last year, and the audience exploded with rage.
Promising Young Woman, released in the UK soon, dares to suggest a very uncomfortable truth – that women are just as violent, ruthless and angry as men.

Already highly rated for an Oscar, the film was described as ‘Thelma & Louise for the #MeToo generation’, after the 1991 road movie that showed two women doing justice with their own hands after a sexual assault.
Promising young woman is written and directed by the beauty of the Emerald Fennell society, who was the talented nurse Patsy Mount in BBC’s Call The Midwife and plays Camilla Parker Bowles in the latest controversial series on Netflix’s The Crown.
The film features Cassie, played by Mulligan, a 30-year-old girl who dropped out of medical school on a mission to avenge her best friend’s rape and subsequent suicide.
By day, she has a dead-end job in a cafe, but at night, in various bars and clubs, she pretends to be drunk to catch men who consider her an easy target.
They soon learn differently, as Cassie callously does her own rude justice.
