According to reports, there may have been some tension between Florence Pugh and Olivia Wilde on the set of their film, "Don't Worry Darling." It was rumored that the two actresses, who have a 12-year age difference, clashed while filming the psychological thriller that was released in theaters two years ago.
Speculation of a feud between the two was fueled when Florence missed some promotional duties for the film. However, it was later explained that her absence was due to scheduling conflicts as she was filming for "Dune 2." Despite the rumors, Florence has never directly addressed the alleged drama, stating that she finds it unfair to take away attention from the movie she is promoting at the time.
In an interview with Vogue, she shared, "There are so many times when I've been doing press for a movie and I am asked questions about 'Don't Worry Darling,' and I always think it's unfair to take the space away from the movie that I'm talking about. So I'm going to politely move away from that."
Olivia Wilde, who directed "Don't Worry Darling," has also denied any feud between the two actresses. In an interview with Elle Magazine, she expressed her frustration that the focus was on rumors rather than the film's important themes. She said, "This film is trying to ask big questions, but [it's] 'Let's just focus on this sideshow over here.'"
Florence, on the other hand, wanted to shift the conversation away from the rumored drama and instead give attention to her other projects. She told Vogue, "Having been a known figure for a while...makes me well-equipped to have a Teflon exterior. But it also means that you're under a different kind of microscope. It's brought my attention to the media and how it pits women against one another."
She also spoke about the media's habit of spreading false information and how it affects her, saying, "It is shocking to see so many untruths about yourself traded as fact." Olivia, on her end, had nothing but praise for Florence's acting skills, describing her performance in "Don't Worry Darling" as "exquisite."
In an interview with Vanity Fair, she shared, "Florence did the job I hired her to do, and she did it exquisitely. She blew me away. Every day I was in awe of her, and we worked very well together." Despite these positive words, there were claims that Olivia "neglected" Florence on set because she was taken with her co-star, Harry Styles, whom she was dating at the time before their split in 2022.
"Don't Worry Darling" tells the story of Alice, an unhappy housewife, and her husband Jack, who live in an isolated, dystopian community in the California desert in the 1950s. The film, which also stars Harry Styles, is set to be released later this year.
