Ella Purnell Talks Having a “Poop Finger” While Filming ‘Fallout’

Ella Purnell has a rather unusual complaint about one of her biggest roles yet—losing a finger. The Fallout star recently opened up about the frustration of dealing with a fake amputated finger while playing Lucy MacLean in the Prime Video series. And this isn’t even the first time she’s had to go through it—her Arcane character, Jinx, also lost a finger in Season 2.
During a Fan Expo HQ panel, Purnell admitted she really hopes this doesn’t become a recurring theme in her career. “That would be one of the worst things to happen to me,” she said. “Purely because, do you have any idea how annoying it is to have that finger painted on me every single day? This finger is the bane of my life. It is the worst thing.”
