Harry Styles in upcoming psychological thriller Don’t Worry Darling.Directed by Olivia Wilde, the film follows young couple Alice (Pugh) and Jack Chambers (Styles) in the 1950s, whose happy marriage starts to unravel when she becomes suspicious of her husband’s work on a secret project.A lot of attention around the film has been drawn to the sex scenes between Pugh and Styles, with director Wilde saying last year she wanted to make audiences “realise how rarely they see female hunger, and specifically this type of female pleasure” on screens.Speaking to Harpers Bazaar, however, Pugh said she doesn’t want Don’t Worry Darling to be “reduced” to the sex scenes.“When it’s reduced to your sex scenes, or to watch the most famous man in the world go down on someone, it’s not why we do it,” Pugh said. “It’s not why I’m in this industry.“Obviously, the nature of hiring the most famous pop star in the world, you’re going to have conversations like that.
That’s just not what I’m going to be discussing because [this movie is] bigger and better than that. And the people who made it are bigger and better than that.”Alongside Pugh and Styles, the film stars Wilde, Gemma Chan, KiKi Layne, Nick Kroll and Chris Pine.
The film marks Wilde’s second time as director, following her debut feature Booksmart.Earlier this year, Pugh took aim at “vulgar” criticism she received about her body after wearing a dress at a Valentino fashion show.“It isn’t the first time and certainly won’t be the last time a woman will hear what’s wrong with her body by a crowd of strangers, what’s worrying is just how vulgar some of you men can be,” she wrote.Don’t Worry Darling will premiere at the Venice Film Festival on September 5. It will be released in cinemas

is proving to be a very ironic title for Olivia Wilde's sophomore directorial effort, as quite a bit of drama worth worrying about has unfolded over the course of production and the subsequent promotional blitz ahead of the film's release next month.From the film's early casting shakeups — with Harry Styles taking over for Shia LaBeouf — to Wilde's high-profile split from her long-time partner, Jason Sudeikis, and subsequent romance with her new leading man, drama, rumors and mild scandals have permeated every facet of the film's production.While the drama had largely been between Wilde, LaBeouf and Florence Pugh, Styles and co-star Chris Pine have been dragged into the rumor mill over an alleged incident at the Venice Film Festival — which has been filled with drama for the film on all fronts.With the tensions between Wilde and LaBeouf coming to a head last week as the actor accused the filmmaker of misrepresenting his exit from the film — and rumors swirling over Pugh's alleged feud with Wilde supposedly due to her romance with Styles and split from Sudeikis — it feels like risks being overshadowed by the controversy.Amid the back-and-forth allegations and fan-fueled rumors, ET is breaking down all the drama and examining the behind-the-scenes in-fighting and how the headline-grabbing feuds first formed. In April 2020, news broke that Pugh and LaBeouf — as well as Chris Pine — had been cast as the leads of Wilde's forthcoming drama, which is set in the 1950s.
Florence Pugh is thriving amid all the drama and online rumors caused by the ‘Don’t Worry Darling’ film, showing that she is not letting it get to her despite her alleged feud with Olivia Wilde and some tension among the rest of the cast, including Harry Styles, Chris Pine, Gemma Chan, Sydney Chandler and Nick Kroll.The cast of the film walked the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival together, despite previous reports that detailed a pay disparity between Pugh and Styles, and a video that surfaced online, in which Wilde asks Shia LaBeouf to stay in the film, calling Florence, “Miss Flo.”And while Olivia had previously claimed that Shia had been fired for the project in an effort to create a “safer” working environment. The actor went on to respond saying that the director had in fact encouraged him to stay.Florence decided to skip press day during the festival, probably to avoid questions about the drama.
Hollywood drama has been rife surrounding the upcoming movie Don’t Worry Darling. The most recent being rumours of a fallout between Harry Styles, 28, and Chris Pine, 42, following “spit-gate”.

“Don’t Worry Darling” actress Florence Pugh — and dodged a question about Shia LaBeouf — at the Venice Film Festival.The director attended a press panel on Monday alongside the film’s stars, Harry Styles, Gemma Chan and Chris Pine.A journalist asked Wilde to “clear the air” about a “falling out” with Pugh, who was absent — as previously expected — from speaking to the press but would attend the movie’s premiere on Monday. “Florence is a force and we are so grateful that she is able to make it tonight despite being in production on ‘Dune,'” Wilde said.

The awkwardness continues for Olivia Wilde, Harry Styles, and Florence Pugh amid the Don’t Worry Darling press run and publicity period…
It seems not a day goes by that we’re not talking about the apparent feud between Florence Pugh and Olivia Wilde, who worked together on the upcoming psychological thriller Don’t Worry Darling. So much has happened between when the cast was first announced to now, and as the film approaches its premiere at the Venice Film Festival on September 5, 2022, it wouldn’t be surprising if you’re struggling to keep up or completely unaware what the controversy is in the first place. This is the Olivia Wilde-Florence Pugh feud explained, plus why we think it sounds more legitimate than ever.
Olivia Wilde revealed she "had to cut" sexy scenes from the "Don't Worry Darling" trailer. Wilde, who directed and stars in the film, admitted shots were removed from the trailer "at the last second" and noted we continue to live in a "really puritanical society." "There’s a lot that had to be taken out of the trailer," Wilde told The Associated Press. "The MPA came down hard on me and the trailer at the last second and I had to cut some shots, which I was upset about because I thought they took it up another notch.
A new report says that Florence Pugh will only make one press appearance to promote her upcoming movie Don’t Worry Darling.
Variety that she originally envisioned the “Watermelon Sugar” singer for the role of Jack, the sketchy husband of a suburban housewife named Alice, but Styles, 28, had already hit the road for a global tour. Thus, LaBeouf, 36, was cast instead. But by early production in 2020, Wilde said the “Honeyboy” actor had to go.
