Wilde’s falling out with the film’s original star Shia LaBeouf and her romance with his replacement Harry Styles; alleged bad blood between her and lead actress Florence Pugh.

The drama behind “Don’t Worry Darling” overshadowed the actual film, forcing Wilde to keep low profile over the past four years.

She and Seth Roge play a San Francisco couple on the brink of a breakup who are facing their marital problems when they invite a free-spirited couple from their building (Oscar winner Penelope Cruz and Oscar nomimnee Edward Norton) over for dinner.

The Invite was bought by A24 for $12 million after its acclaimedm Sundance Fest debut in January.

“I feel so lucky, I mean, this is the greatest job in the world, and to be able to make a film with this group of people and to be able to release it in theaters is the dream. It’s been the most rewarding experience.”

The Invite is an English-language adaptation of Cesc Gay’s 2020 Spanish film “Sentimental,” from his stage play of the same name.

Rashida Jones and Will McCormack serve as screenwriters. Producer David Permut is currently developing a stage adaptation.

“She can handle pressure, I really admire that and in the most kind and generous way,” Cruz said of Wilde. “She always had time for every person in every department. We spent a crazy week and a half working on the script, all of us.”

Rogen recalled the cast sharing some of their most private and vulnerable experiences about romance and marriage with each other before filming began.

“We all sat in a room and sort of read through the script, but mostly talked about kind of what we all thought made a good marriage and maybe made a bad marriage and made a healthy sexual dynamic and an unhealthy [sexual dynamic],” he said. “It got very personal very fast with a lot of the actors because that’s what the movie is about. I think in order to make it feel as real and reflective of the filmmakers and the team’s lives as possible, we all really got very honest with one another and I think it made the film much better and a lot of it worked its way into the film in various ways.”

Wilde revealed that she chose A24 over Netflix because she wanted run in theaters.

The Invite release comes just after a report that the domestic box office is 13% ahead of last year. The summer season is pacing just 3.4% behind 2019, the last pre-pandemic year.

“I was so excited to hear that, I think it’s great that it’s largely driven by young people because for a while there was this myth that young people, Gen Z, didn’t want to go to the movie theaters,” Wilde said. “There was this manipulation at play that was trying to say that they didn’t want to go to the movie theaters. They didn’t care, they’d rather be home.
