en Bollywood News Harry Styles did not spit on Chris Pine at Don’t Worry Darling premiere, confirms rep; calls it ‘a ridiculous story’

Chris Pine's rep released a statement addressing the viral Harry Styles slapgate at Don't Worry Darling premiere in Venice.

A lot went down at the premiere of Don't Worry Darlings premiere at the Venice Film Festival 2022 on Monday but one incident left the netizens confused. A video went viral on social media in which it seemed like singer-actor Harry Styles spat on actor Chris Pine who seemingly looked amused. As the discussions around the video viral on social media, a representative of Chris Pine had to release a statement calling it a ridiculous story.

“This is a ridiculous story — a complete fabrication and the result of an odd online illusion that is clearly deceiving and allows for foolish speculation,” Pine’s representative said in a statement to Variety. “Just to be clear, Harry Styles did not spit on Chris Pine. There is nothing but respect between these two men and any suggestion otherwise is a blatant attempt to create drama that simply does not exist.”

“This is not true,” The Guardian reported, as per sources close to Harry Styles on Tuesday.

While this drama unfolded on the internet, the lead actress Florence Pugh didn't attend the press conference of the film due to her alleged fallout with director Olivia Wilde. She attended the red carpet and the screening but didn't interact with Wilde. According to Variety, when asked at a Venice press conference whether Wilde can “clear the air” about the alleged falling out with Pugh, the director said, “Florence is a force. We are so grateful she’s able to make it tonight [for the red carpet] despite being in production on Dune. 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 to [Dune director Denis Villeneuve] for helping us.”

“And we’ll get to celebrate her work tonight. I can’t say how honoured, I am to have her as our lead. She’s amazing. As for all the endless tabloid gossip and all the noise out there, the Internet feeds itself. I don’t feel the need to contribute; I think it’s sufficiently well-nourished,” said Wilde. Previously, it was reported that Pugh will reportedly sit out of the upcoming psychological film’s press conference in Venice Film Festival after the film premieres.

Starring Florence Pugh, Harry Styles, Gemma Chan, Olivia Wilde and Chris Pine, Don’t Worry Darling hits the theatres on September 23.
