He was also quick to sing Harry Styles's praises. Pine said, "Harry Styles is an absolute delight. He's one of the most professional people I've ever met. Couldn't be kinder, more gracious, I mean, really, I was stunned by this kid. He's off-the-charts cool." He continued, "It's a great cast. You know, life is short, so hopefully you get a chance to make good art with people you really enjoy, and I've been really, really lucky in that regard."

Olivia Wilde did a "victory dance" when Harry Styles joined the film.

According to People, Wilde was overjoyed when she learned that Styles would be joining her movie. In a recent interview, the House star revealed, "I did a little victory dance when we heard that we officially had Harry in the film, because we knew that he has a real appreciation for fashion and style." Wilde continued, "And this movie is incredibly stylistic. It’s very heightened and opulent, and I’m really grateful that he is so enthusiastic about that element of the process—some actors just don’t care."

Harry Styles and Florence Pugh play a couple in a mysterious community.

According to Collider, Pugh plays an unhappy housewife who questions her sanity when strange things start happening in her community. Styles plays her doting husband who's hiding a "dark secret."

Production paused after someone tested positive for COVID-19.

Don't Worry Darling was on hold after a member of the production tested positive for coronavirus, Deadline reported on November 4. The studio, New Line, confirmed the news and said the diagnosis became an occupational hazard, so filming was shut down immediately. Everyone on set isolated right away.

The person who contracted the virus "is not a member of the principal cast but someone who was in close enough proximity to them that the shutdown was deemed necessary to find out if anyone else on the production has been exposed," Deadline added.

So far, no one else on the film has tested positive. Production will be paused for 14 weeks, which is the recommended length of quarantine, per safety guidelines. The film was already a couple weeks into production when the temporary shutdown was put in place.

This isn't Styles's first movie.

Styles made his onscreen acting debut in Christopher Nolan's war film Dunkirk in 2017. Styles, who starred as a young soldier, recalled being "nervous" for the gig, because it was "completely different" from performing in front of a stadium full of fans. "It was a lot of fun," he told Today of the filmmaking experience. "It was one of the best experiences I think I've had."

Aside from Don't Worry Darling, the singer is also in talks to star in the film adaptation of My Policeman.

This is just one of Wilde's upcoming films.

In addition to Don't Worry Darling, Wilde has another major directing project ahead: helming a Marvel film. Last month, she confirmed she's working with Sony to develop a film in the famous superhero universe with a lead female character. The story is rumored to center around Spider-Woman.

Filming has wrapped.

Actor and comedian Asif Ali shared photos from the set of Don't Worry Darling in mid-February, revealing that shooting had wrapped. In the pictures, Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde can be seen standing next to one another.

Florence Pugh also shared photos from the set and revealed that filming had wrapped. "It’s official, it’s a wrap! Yesterday was our final day on the set of Don’t Worry Darling and I wanted to give you all some insight on who this movie is—these are some of the people who made this movie happen," she wrote on Instagram. "This is our talented crew."

She continued, "We were very aware what it meant when we all agreed to this job. It was a COVID movie. One that could get shut down at any moment and of course, we did. However, despite these new shooting restrictions and guidelines, I can’t tell you how energised these people in my photos have been. How inspired, how hard working no matter what the circumstances. We’ve had people leave and people join and each time we’ve been met by beautiful, crazy talented beings."

Director Olivia Wilde also took the opportunity to celebrate the end of filming by praising Harry Styles, who she just so happens to be dating. "Little known fact: most male actors don’t want to play supporting roles in female-led films. The industry has raised them to believe it lessens their power (i.e financial value) to accept these roles, which is one of the reasons it’s so hard to get financing for movies focusing on female stories. No joke, it is harrrrrd to find actors who recognise why it might be worth it to allow for a woman to hold the spotlight," Wilde wrote on Instagram.

She continued, "Enter: @harrystyles, our 'Jack' . Not only did he relish the opportunity to allow for the brilliant @florencepugh to hold centre stage as our 'Alice', but he infused every scene with a nuanced sense of humanity. He didn’t have to join our circus, but he jumped on board with humility and grace, and blew us away every day with his talent, warmth, and ability to drive backwards. 👊 #dontworrydarling."
