Olivia Wilde is taking up three different production roles with the movie ‘Don’t Worry, Darling’. The actress/activist will be behind-the-scenes directing and producing, whiles staying in front of the camera as a cast member for the developing film.
Labeled as a psychological thriller for the Times Up era, ‘Don’t Worry, Darling’ will centre on a 1950’s housewife whose reality begins to crack, revealing a disturbing truth underneath. No studio or streaming service have been attached to the film yet, but Deadline reports that a number of certified platforms are already pulling strings to secure the film.
Wilde will produce alongside her ‘Booksmart’ co-producer Katie Silberman and ‘It’ producer Roy Lee and Miri Yoon through Vertigo Entertainment. Stepping inside the halls of directing, Wilde grabbed the director’s chair for the first time on the set of ‘Booksmart’, but recorded an underperformance at the box office. Repped by CAA, Untitled Entertainment and Ziffren Brittenham LLP, Wilde is currently in production on Clint Eastwood’s ‘The Ballad of Richard Jewell’.
The film will be scripted by Silberman.
