![]() ![]() In response, Shia refuted the implication he was fired in emails to Variety, alleging a lack of rehearsal time has caused him to quit. Last month Wilde gave an interview to Varietyin which she said Shia's process was 'not conducive to the ethos that I demand in my productions' after the role was ultimately recast and given to her now-boyfriend Harry. I don't feel the need to contribute, I think it's sufficiently well nourished.' She's amazing in the film and as for all the endless tabloid gossip and all the noise out there, I mean, the internet feeds itself. She continued: 'I can't say enough how honoured I am to have her as our lead. 'I know as a director how disruptive it is to lose an actor even for a day so I'm very grateful to her and Denis Villeneuve for helping us – we're really thrilled we'll get to celebrate her work tonight.' Olivia responded: 'Florence is a force and we are so grateful that she is able to make it tonight despite being in production on Dune. 'Can you just clear the air and address whether there has been a falling out there and if so why, because it's something that people are discussing?' the reporter asked. A journalist asked her about the reports during Monday's press conference, which was also attended by Harry and his co-stars Chris Pine and Gemma Chan. Indeed, she’s missing Monday’s pressers in Venice, although she will walk the red carpet – and the official line is that she’s flying in late due to filming commitments to the second part of Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi franchise Dune. It’s been alleged that Florence has even been reluctant to do press for the film in the run up to its world premiere in Venice. (Shia was attached to Don’t Worry Darling when it looked like Harry, Olivia’s first choice for the part, wouldn’t be able to make the shoot dates owing to his world tour commitments.) The video was leaked after Shia LaBeouf – yes, really – rejected Olivia's claim that he had been fired from the project, and indeed in said leaked footage Olivia can be heard encouraging Shia to stay signed on to the film, rather than leave it, while also hinting at some apparent beef with ‘Miss Flo’. Those rumours of trouble intensified after Olivia suggested Florence may need a 'wake-up call' in a video that leaked online this month. And there is also the small matter of Harry's wayward accent. This was the exact opposite of what Olivia had told Vogue, saying that she hoped the audience would 'realise how rarely they see female hunger, and specifically this type of female pleasure.' There were also allegations Harry was being paid three times more than Florence (flatly denied by Olivia). ![]() It’s not why I’m in this industry,' she said. ![]() ![]() Then, in an August interview, Florence told Harper's Bazaarthat she was uncomfortable that marketing for Don’t Worry Darling had been reduced to teasing steamy sex scenes between her and Harry – 'When it’s reduced to your sex scenes, or to watch the most famous man in the world go down on someone, it’s not why we do it. The director was still married to Jason Sudeikis, although the two were reportedly separated. Yet, after Booksmart director Olivia posted a gushing BTS snap of Florence onset, TikTokers noted that Florence shared hardly anything about the film, prompting theories that Florence was unhappy with Harry and Olivia’s budding romance (fanned by The New York Post’s gossip site Page Six). ![]()
