Harry Styles jokes that he spat on Chris Pine at the Venice Film Festival

Harry Styles has spoken publicly, for the first time, about the viral drama that has occurred behind the scenes of his latest film premiere, ‘Don’t worry, dear’. And it is that, although the film is already dramatic in itself, what is happening in reality far exceeds fiction.

In case anyone is caught off guard, we briefly return to context. Harry Styles has just premiered, in Venice, Olivia Wilde’s new movie, ‘Do not worry dear’. He stars in it with Florence Pugh, Chris Pine, Olivia Wilde, Gemma Chan, Sydney Chandler Y Nick Kroll. The tensions between the protagonist, Florence Pugh, and Olivia Wilde, who kept their distance in Venice, have resonated continuously, from the beginning of the project to the very premiere of the film, getting to involve more cast members.

All the drama behind ‘Don’t worry, dear’, explained would turn the “brief context” into a long talking point. So we will move on to the most recent events. These place us at the very premiere of the film, last Monday at the Venice Film Festival. Cameras captured Harry Styles approaching his seat (next to his partner, Chris Pine), and it seemed that the singer “spit” on the actor’s lap. He seemed, but was not. Later, Chris Pine’s representative denied the viral story that had taken place in Venice, alleging the good relationship between the interpreters and how the networks were generating more controversy than actually existed.

It seemed that everything was resolved. But Harry Styles took the opportunity to personally speak out on the matter. It is somewhat surprising since, around all this mess, the participation of those involved has been quite limited, with the networks and media being the main disseminators of the whole matter.

“This is our tenth time in Madison Square GardenAnd it’s wonderful, wonderful, wonderful to be back,” Styles said on stage, as reported Page Six. The moment is collected in the following tweet.

“I just dropped by Venice to spit on Chris Pine, but fear not, we’re back!“, he joked, and the audience erupted in squeals and cheers.

If one thing is clear, it is that ‘Don’t worry, dear’ has given more to talk about than many of its competitors this year. All this without even having been released before the general public. It remains to be seen what events take place with its arrival in theaters, and if any more framework arises as a result of this drama from the 1950s, which has crossed the screen to the new (perhaps also crazy) 20s.

‘Don’t worry, dear’ opens in theaters in Spain on September 23.
