Wilde has been doing her best to stay calm after a facing a whirlwind of controversy at the Venice Film Festival of her sophomore directorial feature Don’t Worry Darling, which stars Florence Pugh, her current boyfriend Harry Styles and Chris Pine, among others.

The lovebirds promoted the movie with Chris and fellow stars Gemma Chan and Nick Kroll, but Florence, who plays the lead, was notably absence from much of the festivities.

She skipped a press conference for the film that was attended by Olivia and the actors because her flight allegedly would land too late for her to get there, though she was later seen in Venice nearby while it was taking place.

During the premiere screening and on the red carpet, Florence appeared to keep her distance from her director.

The troubles within the production spilled over to the premiere when some fans became convinced on social media that Harry had spat on his costar Chris when he sat down next to him.

A videos showed Harry taking a seat next to Chris, who had been clapping but instantly stopped as his costar sat down.

However, the video didn’t clearly show any spit, and a second clip from another angle showed the two chatting politely just seconds later.

A representative for Pine later vehemently denied that there had been any spitting.

Florence’s original costar Shia LaBeouf has also been adding to the drama around the film.

He was originally set to star in Don’t Worry Darling before Olivia replaced him with Harry.

After LaBeouf was sued by his ex FKA twigs and details of his allegedly sexual battery and harassment against her emerged, Olivia claimed she had fired him from the production.

But the Honey Boy actor later produced a video that Wilde apparently sent him begging him to stay with the production, and he claimed that he had left over a ‘lack of rehearsal time,’ while forwarding emails to Variety to back up his case.

Florence and Olivia have reportedly been feuding quietly after the actress was allegedly uncomfortable with Olivia’s on-set relationship with Harry, though she claimed to Vanity Fair that her relationship with former partner Jason Sudeikis was ‘over long before’ she and Harry first hooked up.
