Hi @jameysharp 
Yep you're right but the workaround is easy (just not documented). Just like `dataclass` or `TypedDict`, _pydantic_ will attach a `BaseModel` to the main class under `__pydantic_model__`.
So you should be able to make it work by running
`Tup.__pydantic_model__.update_forward_refs()`
(I'm traveling so can't check on my phone for sure)
Oh, that's interesting. It doesn't work, but now I know things I didn't before. :grin:

If I call `Tup.__pydantic_model__.update_forward_refs()` immediately after declaring the `NamedTuple`, it fails with `AttributeError: type object 'Tup' has no attribute '__pydantic_model__'`, which seems reasonable.

If I call it after declaring the Pydantic model, then I get a different error (and a similar result in the real application I stripped this down from): `NameError: name 'PositiveInt' is not defined`

So it doesn't seem to be resolving the names using the correct global scope. My current hypothesis is that the same thing is happening at model definition time, but the error is hidden then because it's indistinguishable from a forward reference, even though this isn't actually a forward reference.

By contrast, declaring the `NamedTuple` field's type as `"int"` without future annotations, or as `int` with future annotations, works fine even without an `update_forward_refs` call, I assume because that name is bound in any scope.

So I think there are multiple bugs here:

1. If people are expected to use `Foo.__pydantic_model__.update_forward_refs()`, then the `ConfigError` should say that instead of `Foo.update_forward_refs()`, and the documentation should cover that case.

2. Maybe the implicit `__pydantic_model__` needs to be tied to the same module as the class which it wraps, somehow?
Yes it is added of course by pydantic once used in a BaseModel. A plain named tuple does not have this attribute so you need to call it after declaring your model.
And for the context you're right locals are not the same.
So in your case it should work with something like
`Tup.__pydantic_model__.update_forward_refs(PositiveInt=PositiveInt)`
We can (and should?) forward locals and stuff to resolve probably forward refs but it probably will never be perfect. So some doc and a better error message are probably a good idea as well
But `PositiveInt` isn't a local here, it's imported in the module at global scope. The [Postponed Annotations](https://pydantic-docs.helpmanual.io/usage/postponed_annotations/) section of the documentation says that should work. That's why I think the synthesized `__pydantic_model__` is referencing the wrong `module.__dict__`.
Yep I know I meant "we can forward more than just the module" sorry if I was not clear.
As I told you I'm on my phone but if you want to change your local pydantic you can try to change https://github.com/samuelcolvin/pydantic/blob/master/pydantic/validators.py#L561 and set `__module__` like it's done for dataclass https://github.com/samuelcolvin/pydantic/blob/master/pydantic/dataclasses.py#L186
If you want to open a fix you're more than welcome 😉
If not I'll have a look and open a fix end of next week! Thanks for reporting!

# Bug

Output of `python -c "import pydantic.utils; print(pydantic.utils.version_info())"`:
```
             pydantic version: 1.8.1
            pydantic compiled: False
                 install path: /nix/store/1f6nk37c7df54cm8b3rlnn6pidaa3mrp-python3.8-pydantic-1.8.1/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pydantic
               python version: 3.8.8 (default, Feb 19 2021, 11:04:50)  [GCC 9.3.0]
                     platform: Linux-5.4.114-x86_64-with
     optional deps. installed: ['typing-extensions']
```

Here's the smallest program I could come up with that fails under `from __future__ import annotations` but works without it:

```py
from __future__ import annotations

from pydantic import BaseModel, PositiveInt
from typing import NamedTuple

class Tup(NamedTuple):
    v: PositiveInt

class Mod(BaseModel):
    t: Tup

print(Mod.parse_obj({"t": [3]}))
```

The call to `parse_obj` raises this exception: `pydantic.errors.ConfigError: field "v" not yet prepared so type is still a ForwardRef, you might need to call Tup.update_forward_refs().` But there is no `update_forward_refs` on `NamedTuple` instances.

Just using a base `int` in the `NamedTuple` doesn't exhibit the same problem, but of course it also doesn't check the constraints I want.

My current workaround is to just not use `from __future__ import annotations` in the module where I declare and use the `NamedTuple`, but I was hoping to use the new style consistently throughout the project.
