Olivia Wilde denies shouting match with Florence Pugh during filming
Olivia Wilde once again commented on rumors surrounding the behind-the-scenes of "Don't Worry, Honey" and categorically denied that there was a shouting match with Florence Pugh during filming.
Speculation began even before the film's release, when reports emerged suggesting conflicts between the director and the production's main actress. As time went by, rumors grew and began to dominate part of the press coverage about the film.
Now, Wilde claims that many of these stories were exaggerated or simply made up.
According to the filmmaker, creative differences can happen in any film production, but this does not mean that there are dramatic confrontations or hostility between those involved.
The director explained that the work environment was much more professional than many reports suggested. She also highlighted Florence Pugh's talent and reaffirmed her admiration for the actress.
The rumors gained strength because the release of "Don't Worry, Honey" was accompanied by several public controversies, including speculation about personal relationships, cast changes and alleged behind-the-scenes disagreements.
Despite this, Wilde insists that much of the narrative created around the film ended up becoming bigger than the actual events themselves.
Florence Pugh never publicly confirmed the existence of a shouting match with the director. Although she maintained a certain distance from the film's promotion at times, the actress focused her statements on the work done in front of the cameras.
With Wilde's new manifestation, the director hopes to end one of the most talked about stories involving the production and redirect attention to the film itself.
