Director Olivia Wilde’s psychological thriller Don’t Worry, Darling is getting a theatrical release on September 23rd, and yesterday at CinemaCon our own Chris Bumbray got to see a sneak preview of the film’s trailer, and now the rest of us have an image. It doesn’t sound like those in attendance knew what to make of it, as “even after the trailer was over, audiences weren’t quite sure exactly what mould the high-concept thriller fits into.” It’s not clear when the trailer is going to be arriving online, but while we wait Warner Bros. has shared (via Collider) a first look image of stars Florence Pugh and Harry Styles in character. You can check out the image at the bottom of this article.
Written by Carey and Shane Van Dyke, with rewrites by Wilde and Katie Silberman, Don’t Worry, Darling is set “in an isolated, utopian community in the 1950s California desert”. It’s about what happens
a 1950s housewife living with her husband in a utopian experimental community begins to worry that his glamorous company may be hiding disturbing secrets.

Florence Pugh plays the housewife, with Harry Styles as her picture-perfect husband, who happens to be hiding a dark secret from her. Chris Pine plays “the revered leader of a mysterious worksite where all the men work just outside of town”. KiKi Layne, Gemma Chan, and Nick Kroll are also in the cast, and Wilde reserved a “key supporting role” for herself.
Pine has described the story as “so compelling and so fun and so dark and twisted.”
Wilde and Silberman produced Don’t Worry, Darling with Roy Lee and Miri Yoon of Vertigo Entertainment. Catherine Hardwicke executive produced alongside the Van Dykes. Richard Brener, Daria Cercek, and Celia Khong oversaw the project for New Line Cinema.
