Dani Ardor is the main protagonist of the 2019 folk horror film Midsommar directed by Ari Aster. She is crowned the "May Queen" by the pagan cult and eventually accepts them as her family.
She is portrayed by Florence Pugh.
Background
Towards the final act of the film, the pagan cult makes the decision to sacrifice four individuals, who will all die from being burned in the yellow building seen throughout the film. Among the four is Dani's boyfriend Christian Hughes, with whom she is no longer getting along with. Before the group proceeds with the killings, they ask Dani whether or not they should sacrifice Christian. Although hesistant, she ultimately agrees to go forward with this after seeing him have sex with Maja.
Christian is stuffed into a disemboweled bear and placed in a designated temple, alongside the still-living Ingemar, a second villager, and the ritualistically-prepared corpses of Josh, Mark, Simon, Connie, and the two elders. The temple is burned in an effort to purge the cult's evil. As the cult celebrates the completion of their ritual, Dani sobs in horror, but gradually begins to smile.
