The ugly carousel horse that went viral in A24’s ‚We Live In Time,‘ starring Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield
An image of an ugly carousel horse has gone viral across social media, with users posting the goofy creature into iconic film images. The horse, which appears in a promotional image for A24’s film ‚We Live in Time,‘ quickly captured the attention of internet users and sparked a wave of creativity.
Where Did The ‘Ugly Carousel Horse’ Meme Come From?
The viral meme originated from a first look image posted by the official Film Crave account on Twitter. The image features Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield sharing a cute moment on a carousel, with the awkwardly designed horse photobombing the frame. The stark contrast between the heartfelt scene and the comical appearance of the carousel horse caught the internet’s eye and led to its rapid spread.
Comedian Pallavi Gunalan was among the first to point out the horse’s intrusion in the image, leading to a flood of memes and fan art featuring the creature. Users began inserting the horse’s head into various film stills and movie posters, showcasing their creativity and humor.
The meme quickly gained popularity and made its way into horror film scenes, including references to ‚Alien: Romulus,‘ ‚Midsommar,‘ ‚Longlegs,‘ and even the iconic chest-bursting scene from the original ‚Alien‘ film. The horse head also found its way into other popular memes, becoming a humorous addition to internet culture.
Behind-the-scenes looks at the carousel horse and attempts to locate its origin added to the meme’s intrigue. Some speculated about the horse’s potential appearance in the final cut of the film, while others debated whether its inclusion was a mistake or a clever marketing strategy.
The flurry of ugly horse memes brought attention to ‚We Live in Time‘ and sparked a creative streak among film Twitter users. Whether the meme will enhance the film’s promotion or become a distraction during Pugh and Garfield’s press tour remains to be seen. Overall, the meme has provided a fun and silly diversion for internet users and showcased the power of creativity in online communities.
