Ah, man — not only did Harry Styles apparently and allegedly spit at Chris Pine during the Don’t Worry Darling premiere at the Venice Film Festival, but the poor guy apparently had to have what’s known as a “Sad Ben Affleck Moment” during an interview alongside the former One Direction star.
While being interviewed at the Venice Film Festival, Styles — who previously starred in Christopher Nolan’s 2017 World War II film Dunkirk — was detailing what he loved about Don’t Worry Darling. However, Styles’ soliloquy wasn’t particularly eloquent, and as a result, both his response and Chris Pine’s pained facial expression have since gone viral.
“My favorite thing about the movie is, like, it feels like a movie. It feels like a real go-to-the-theater film movie. The reason why you go to watch something on the big screen,” Styles said.
Following an already chaotic and toxic Don’t Worry Darling press tour, Pine’s reaction to Styles’ dimwitted response was just the latest moment involving the film and its stars to make headlines.
Movie fans feel sorry for Chris Pine for having to sit through Harry Styles’ stupid explanation of what he loves about Don’t Worry Darling

Imagine being Chris Pine, a PROFESSIONAL actor. Flip phone is charged. Feminist theory books on deck for your down time between junkets. You show up to your cast HATING each other and you get stuck on a junket with a man who has seemingly just figured out what acting is? Wow.

*Don’t worry*, Chris: you remain the best Hollywood Chris and you’re only a few weeks away from this nightmare press tour ending. Maybe this will convince him to finally make that fourth Star Trek movie. Just hang in there, king.
The highly-publicized (perhaps for the wrong reasons) Don’t Worry Darling — Olivia Wilde’s second directorial effort following 2019’s critically acclaimed coming-of-age film Booksmart — stars Pine, Gemma Chan, and Wilde herself alongside Pugh and Styles, and will hit theaters in the United States on Friday, September 23.
