CRY and confusion! A movie with one of the most controversial behind the scenes in history is coming to HBO Max

After having an average performance at the global box office, one of the most controversial behind-the-scenes films in history is finally making its streaming debut.

The thriller ‘Don’t Worry Honey’ just dropped on HBO Max, and it’s one of those instances where the behind-the-scenes is more interesting than the movie itself.

Filming was extremely troubled and marked by conflict between actress Florence Pugh and director Olivia Wilde.

Vulture claims a source witnessed an intense argument between the actress and the director in January 2021 – when filming was almost complete – which resulted in “a lot of shouting” between them.

Rumors involving a disagreement between the two have been circulating on the internet for months, allegedly involving the unprofessional behavior of the filmmaker who, according to Puck News, “disappeared” backstage at the feature to catch up with her new boyfriend, Harry Modes.

Sources also say Pugh’s friendship with Wilde’s ex-husband, actor Jason Sudeikis, has left the actress in an uncomfortable position due to the director’s new relationship.

For this reason, Pugh declined to promote the film, engaging as little as possible. Additionally, executives at Warner Bros. would be extremely unhappy with Wilde because of all the drama she brought to the production, as well as the way she handled Shia LaBeouf’s departure from the project – after saying she fired the actor, for be publicly denied by him.

In addition to the controversies, “Don’t Worry Honey” has been panned by critics, and the general consensus is that even Pugh’s great performance doesn’t save the production from a cliched, uninventive, forced story.

“Olivia Wilde’s biggest flaw is her imagination. Her film is solid, beautifully constructed acting, but it’s not as disturbing as he’d like. There’s nothing wrong with that. worry.” (Los Angeles Times)

“A thriller with an ambitious concept but an unsatisfactory execution.” (Hollywood journalist)

“If this movie is really about female pleasure, I’d hate to see Olivia play [Wilde] on female pain. This movie hurt enough. (IndieWire)

“If you’re in a good mood, ‘Don’t Worry Honey’ can be fun – even if Olivia Wilde’s thriller fails to significantly rewrite the rules of the genre.” (Deadline)
