Stylish thriller Don’t Worry Darling hits theaters on September 23, which is not too far away but may feel like an eternity. Amidst all the hilarious drama with the cast at the Venice Film Festival, Darling received a five-minute standing ovation. The movie, starring Florence Pugh, Harry Styles, and Chris Pine, looks like a 1950s dream turned into a nightmare.
I’ve watched the trailers more times than I care to count because I am just excited to see Florence Pugh and Chris Pine do anything. Many people are comparing the trailers to a more horrific take on The Stepford Wives due to parallels with the film where men turned their wives into mindless robots. But the vibes of Darling better match lesser-known comic book series Hex Wives.
