Thrilling Trailer For Florence Pugh's DON'T WORRY DARLING From Director Olivia Wilde
Warner Bros. has released a new full trailer for New Line Cinema’s upcoming unsettling new thriller Don’t Worry Darling. The movie was directed by Olivia Wilde (Booksmart) and she also co-stars alongside a talented cast of actors that includes Florence Pugh (Little Women, Black Widow), in the role of Alice, Harry Styles, Chris Pine, Kiki Layne, Gemma Chan, Nick Kroll, Douglas Smith, and Sydney Chandler.
The movie is set in the 1950s and it follows a housewife living with her husband in a utopian experimental community. As she spends time in this community, she begins to question things and starts to worry that his glamorous company may be hiding disturbing secrets.
This looks like a great movie and Wilde has explained that this film features the best performance from Florence Pugh that we’ve seen yet. You get a little taste of that in this trailer. This movie looks great and Wilde also said that this is her passion project and the one film in her career that she wanted to make.
The full synopsis reads:
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 screenplay was written by Booksmart scribe Katie Silberman, and it’s based on a story by Carey Van Dyke and Shane Van Dyke (Chernobyl Diaries) and Silberman. Check out the trailer below, and watch Don’t Worry Darling in theaters on September 23, 2022.
