Hardly anyone gets as much attention at the Venice Film Festival as pop star Harry Styles. He’s basking in the limelight. How the rest of the cast liked it could be seen from Chris Pine’s face at the press conference.
Hardly any appearance on the red carpet in Venice was as expected as that of the cast of “Don’t Worry Darling”. On the one hand because in the thriller the currently most sought-after man in the world, pop star Harry Styles, plays a quite spicy role. On the other hand, because negative headlines have been causing a lot of turmoil around the film for some time now. Because behind the scenes there should have been a violent bang – so much so that it was not clear until the end whether actress Florence Pugh would even honor herself at the film festival. But one person doesn’t seem to be impressed by all the bickering and bitching: actor Chris Pine. At the press conference for the film, he leaned back and switched off. The accompanying video evidence subsequently went viral.
It was clear in advance that there would be a great deal of fanfare about the film. Pop star Harry Styles in particular was celebrated, causing tears and screams with his performance. His 42-year-old colleague Chris Pine, on the other hand, was much more relaxed. He acted as if he had nothing to do with anything, but really nothing at all. Instead of taking part in the press conference on Monday, he visibly drifted away, seeming to want to be far, far away. The trigger: a memorable quote from Styles.
Chris Pine Goes Viral With Zero Reaction to Harry Styles
“You know, what I like most about the film is that it feels like a real movie… which is why you watch something on the big screen,” he said. Pine’s reaction? No. The face motionless, the gaze blank. And the fans celebrated him for it. One commented on Twitter: “Imagine you’re Chris Pine, professional actor. Flip phone charged. Feminist theory books on deck for breaks between shoots. You show up with your team who hate and become each other stuck on a shoot with a guy who seems to have just figured out what acting is? Wow.” Another captioned the clip: “Honey, I’ll get you out of there!”. It didn’t take long for the clip to go viral.
Pine isn’t the only one who seems annoyed that Styles is getting all the attention. Lead actress Florence Pugh had previously indicated in interviews that she was not happy that the pop star’s fame overshadowed the film. Styles replaced actor Shia LaBeouf, who left the project shortly after filming began. There is conflicting information about the reasons.
