Don't Worry Darling is an upcoming American psychological thriller film directed by Olivia Wilde.[1] The screenplay was written by Katie Silberman, based on a story by Carey and Shane Van Dyke and Silberman.[2] The film features an ensemble cast that includes Florence Pugh, Harry Styles, Wilde, Gemma Chan, KiKi Layne, Nick Kroll, and Chris Pine.

Don't Worry Darling is scheduled to be released in the United States on September 23, 2022 by Warner Bros. Pictures.

Premise

A young housewife living in the 1950s discovers a disturbing truth while her loving husband hides a dark secret.

Cast

Production

The film was announced in August 2019, after a bidding war amongst 18 studios to acquire the next project directed by Olivia Wilde; New Line Cinema later won the auction.[3][4] The screenplay appeared on the 2019 Black List.[5] In April 2020, Florence Pugh, Shia LaBeouf and Chris Pine were added to the cast of the film,[6] with Dakota Johnson joining the next month.[7][8] In September 2020, Harry Styles joined the cast of the film,[9] replacing LaBeouf who had allegedly dropped out due to a scheduling conflict.[10] However, it was later reported that LaBeouf had been fired by Wilde over poor behavior and clashing with the cast and crew.[11] In October 2020, Gemma Chan and KiKi Layne joined the cast of the film, with Layne replacing Johnson who had to drop out due to a scheduling conflict with The Lost Daughter.[12] That same month, Sydney Chandler, Nick Kroll, Douglas Smith, Kate Berlant, Asif Ali, Timothy Simons, and Ari'el Stachel joined the cast of the film.[13][14]

Principal photography began in Los Angeles on October 20, 2020.[15] It was temporarily halted for two weeks on November 4 after a crew member tested positive for COVID-19, which resulted in stars Pugh, Styles and Pine being quarantined.[16] Filming wrapped on February 13, 2021.[17][18]

Music

The film's original score was composed by John Powell.[19]

Marketing

At the CinemaCon 2022 for the stage at Caesars Palace, Wilde confirmed that the idea of the film is inspired by Inception, The Matrix and The Truman Show. The presentation also received heavy news coverage when Wilde was delivered an envelope containing confidential custody documents from ex-fiance Jason Sudeikis, who was unaware about the envelope being delivered onstage to Wilde. This resulted in the event reevaluating its security protocols.[20][21]

Release

It is scheduled to be theatrically released on September 23, 2022.[22][23] It will be streamed on HBO Max 45 days after its theatrical release.[24]
