Life could be a dream If only all my precious plans would come true If you would let me spend my whole life loving you.
Life could be a dream, sweetheart.

Olivia Wilde’s-highly anticipated Don’t Worry Darling has arrived and had its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival this evening. Joined by stars Harry Styles, Chris Pine, Gemma Chan — and Florence Pugh who arrived straight from the Budapest set of Dune 2 — Wilde saw her film receive a spirited five-plus minute ovation.
Olivia Wilde first arrived on the Lido Monday morning for the much talked about anticipated press conference joined by her principal cast including Harry Styles, Gemma Chan, and Chris Pine.
You can check out all the looks from the festivals in the gallery below.
Set in the 1950’s New Line Cinema’s Don’t Worry Darling, Alice (Pugh) and Jack (Styles) are lucky to be living in the idealized community of Victory, the experimental company town housing the men who work for the top-secret Victory Project and their families. The 1950’s societal optimism espoused by their CEO, Frank (Pine)—equal parts corporate visionary and motivational life coach—anchors every aspect of daily life in the tight-knit desert utopia. While the husbands spend every day inside the Victory Project Headquarters, working on the “development of progressive materials,” their wives—including Frank’s elegant partner, Shelley (Chan)—get to spend their time enjoying the beauty, luxury and debauchery of their community. Life is perfect, with every resident’s needs met by the company.
All they ask in return is discretion and unquestioning commitment to the Victory cause. But when cracks in their idyllic life begin to appear, exposing flashes of something much more sinister lurking beneath the attractive façade, Alice can’t help questioning exactly what they’re doing in Victory, and why. Just how much is Alice willing to lose to expose what’s really going on in this paradise?
An audacious, twisted and visually stunning psychological thriller, “Don’t Worry Darling” is a powerhouse feature from director Olivia Wilde that boasts intoxicating performances from Florence Pugh and Harry Styles, surrounded by the impressive and pitch-perfect cast.
The film also stars Nick Kroll (“How It Ends”), Sydney Chandler (“Pistol”), Kate Berlant (“Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood”), Asif Ali (“WandaVision”), Douglas Smith (“Big Little Lies”), Timothy Simons (“Veep”) and Ari’el Stachel (upcoming “Respect the Jux”).
