For several weeks, Don’t Worry, Darling has been talking about on social networks. But it is not the subject of the film or the trailer that obsesses Internet users, but the controversies that surround the thriller, between behind-the-scenes tensions, contradictory information about the main actor or even Florence Pugh who refuses to promote the feature film. The climax was reached during the Venice Film Festival 2022, where video recordings could suggest that Harry Styles had spat on his co-star, Chris Pine! But what really happened? Answer below.
Olivia Wilde claims she fired Shia LaBeouf
The controversy over Don’t Worry, Darling began on August 24, 2022, with a sentence Olivia Wilde uttered in Variety. The director claimed to have demanded the dismissal of Shia Labeouf, who was originally to play the main character, because he was accused of sexist and sexual violence. To “protect” Florence Pugh, the director decides to fire him and have him replaced by Harry Styles. In any case, this is his version of the facts.
The contradictory version of Shia LaBeouf
However, Shia Labeouf’s version of events is different from Olivia Wilde’s. Two days after the declarations of the director, the actor affirms with Variety that it was he who decided to leave the filming of Don’t worry Darling. He explains his behavior by the fact that he was not well at that time and that he particularly regretted the absence of the other actors during rehearsals before filming. To support his words, he shares with the American magazine specializing in entertainment exchanges with the director. According to another source, who spoke to Vanity Fair, LaBeouf would have asked the director to choose between him and Florence Pugh.
Shia Labeouf brings several pieces of evidence to support his version of the story, namely that he decided on his own free will to leave Don’t worry darling. He shares text messages exchanged with Olivia Wilde, in which she tells him: “It’s never nice to say no to someone and I respect your honesty […] I’m honored that you wanted to do this project with me, that I could tell this story with you.”
Worse, Shia Labeouf transmits a video of Olivia Wilde in which she tries to convince him to stay, and also castigates the behavior of Florence Pugh whom she nicknames “Miss Flo”: “I am not ready to give up. I’m also heartbroken and I want to understand what happened. You know, I think this might be a red flag for Miss Flo, and I want to know if you’re ready to give it a shot. me, with us. If she really gets involved, with her mind and her heart, and if you can make peace – I respect your point of view, and hers – there is still hope? You tell me what you think ?”
Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles as a couple
Dismissal or resignation, whatever it is, Harry Styles replaces Shia Labeouf. According to rumors and paparazzi, a romance between the actor and Olivia Wilde then begins on the set. If the question ignites the internet, and particularly the fans of the ex-member of One Direction, the question would have made the film crews uncomfortable, including Florence Pugh. It would also seem that the former husband of the director, Jason Sudeikis, and their children, sometimes went on the set of the film… To Vanity Fair, Olivia Wilde affirms, however, that she “never left Jason for Harry. an end to our relationship long before I met Harry.” She takes the opportunity to confirm their romantic relationship.
