00:00Don't worry darling made its debut at the Venice Film Festival, but we need to talk about why it's

00:04making headlines for all the wrong reasons. It started last year with reports of a falling out

00:08between director Olivia Wilde and actor Shia LaBeouf. Wilde claims she fired LaBeouf to create

00:13a quote safe trusting environment for the movie's lead Florence Pugh. LaBeouf disagreed asserting

00:18that he in fact quit and then released text and video messages to support his claim. I think this

00:22might be a bit of a wake-up call for Miss Flo and I want to know if you're open to giving this a shot.

00:28Rumors about a feud between Wilde and Pugh soon followed, including Wilde's alleged preferential

00:33treatment of Harry Styles and limiting of Pugh's creative process. Therefore, all eyes were on the

00:38Venice Film Festival where both women would meet for the first time since filming. A day before

00:43the premiere, it was announced that Pugh would not attend the movie's press conference due to

00:46scheduling conflicts. When asked about the rumored falling out with Pugh, Wilde said she didn't feel

00:51the need to contribute to the gossip. At the premiere, Wilde, Pugh, and Styles kept their

00:55distance and interactions to a minimum, with none of them commenting on the situation.
