Olivia Wilde To Write & Direct Don't Worry Darling

I didn't believe the idea that Wilde and Styles were making their relationship known and obvious to the rest of cast and crew, but with the way everyone was today at the premiere, how uncomfortable so many looked at times, and Pugh clearly having no time for Wilde or Styles, I'm starting to think that's exactly what happened.

Yes, I too love it when a movie feels like a movie.

Correction: a mooovie.

The press tour for this film needs to be edited into its own moovie when it's all over. It will be a surreal classic.

Some of this feels like schadenfreude, no offense.

Not long ago, everyone was exalting Olivia Wilde for Booksmart. Now everyone seems to want to tear her down. And I think it's mainly because of her relationship with Harry Styles.

Honestly didn’t care for that movie. Seemed like a Superbad ripoff that it even cast Jonah Bill’s sister

It's not like Superbad invented the whole guys have a wild, weird night where high jinks ensue comedy.

That this is not said more often should be the advertisement for the lead-lined blinders everyone seems to be wearing.

This needs “Hello darkness my old friend” playing in the background

Of course not. Coming of age movies are nothing new. But a raunchy comedy about two high school friends who have one last night together before going off to college, and end up having a falling out before reconciling and realizing they may not always be friends sounds awfully similar.

Folks spitting on each other, folks paying their lying ass director dust and walking out in the middle of a standing ovation, non-acting singers trying to act…

Just pour the popcorn in a feedbag and attach it to my face like I'm a damn horse. I can't look away, it's too glorious.

Picture it: "FX Presents FEUD: The WHOLE cast of Don't Worry Darling".

Ryan Murphy better bring it lol.

I'm up to date with all this drama now and that's juicy. I loved it.

A few years ago, the media seemed all about Olivia Wilde with Booksmart, now it seems like everyone has turned on her.

No idea what has or hasn't happened with Harry Styles, but it just seems like this is a case of high school gossip playing out in the general public, and people are desperate for drama.

I think at the very least there's plenty of material here for some kind of Hollywood satire movie similar to Tropic Thunder with all the feuding, the director having an obvious relationship with one of the leads complete with uncomfortable PDA, and there has to be some shots taken at the endless standing ovations that go on forever at the festival premiere.

Even though I believe Jason was to blame for their failings as a couple... in the general public's mind; weird/abrasive Wilde is an easier villain than Jason who's mostly known for his goofy/fun vibes.

I thought Styles was really good in Dunkirk. I didn’t even realize who he was until after I saw the movie and then when I realized he was this pop star people were obsessed over, I thought, “Well, at least he can act.” His role in Eternals was meh, just like the rest of the movie.

Not sure how he is in this but I’m guessing you’ll have extreme reactions either way, with some people saying he’s so bad he’ll give you eye cancer and his stans claiming he’s so good that he should win an Oscar. But if he really did spit on Chris Pine… WTF? Why would anyone do that?

I feel bad for Pugh and Pine. I’m sure that they both gave really good performances (just based on prior work and what I saw in the trailers) but it sounds like the movie just doesn’t work. I also worry that Wilde being both a s***ty person and apparently a s***ty director will just be more fuel to the fire for sexist Hollywood executives who don’t feel that anyone but straight white men can be entrusted with big budget films. And that sucks.

This is just a guess on my part but I think in this case they were probably both terrible to each other.

 

[samsnee]

We as the public know nothing of the private details of why a relationship doesn’t work out so it’s best not to speculate.

Lawd what is happening with this movie?

Better yet, what is the movie itself even about? lmao

Toxic Suburban 1950's Life, I believe. Cheating... murder... sex.

Think Norman Mailer's The Deer Park.

Pugh and Pine will be fine. Just kick your feet up and enjoy how all this is playing out in public.
