Harry Styles is again in the headlines for promoting his new movie, but also because he allegedly spit on Chris Pine. What is going on?
Don’t Worry Darling seems to be the world’s most ironic movie title. Because there is so much to worry. There are multiple rumors out there of a rift between director Olivia Wilde and main star Florence Pugh. Plus, the drama with Shia LaBeouf.
The movie just made its debut at the 2022 Venice Film Festival, but everything is going wrong. From Olivia Wilde dismissing the drama gossip to off-screen romance to the fact that the movie is not getting great reviews, one can say this: you should worry, darling.
Now fans are dissecting a viral moment from the Don’t Worry Darling premiere. Right as he arrives to take his seat, Harry Styles seems to spit on his co-star Chris Pine, ahead of the film’s screening.
Up until now, Pine had only praise for the 28-year-old singer-turned-actor, so what’s going on?
Almost the entire staff avoided eye contact, including couple Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles. And they didn’t sit together, with Pine sitting between them. And the viral clip that began circulating on the internet on Monday night, Harry seems to spit before sitting down. Pine, 42, quickly seems stunned and stops clapping as he looks down. He shakes his head slightly.

People on the Internet have started dissecting the video, with some claiming that it might be a prank, while others dismissing it completely. Either way, Chris Pine remained completely calm. Neither party has addressed the incident so far.
One Twitter user posted a GIF made from the clip along with the message, “He 100% spit on Chris Pine.” Another user chimed in, “#HarryStyles appears to spit on Chris Pine i won’t sleep until i know the truth,” while a third tweeted, “Someone needs to begin a full fledged investigation into what happened on that don’t worry darling set … wdym harry styles spitting on chris pine on NATIONAL TELEVISION?”
“Chris pine just wondered where his sunglasses were after the applause,” Twitter user @cinemazietgeist wrote of her interpretation of the footage. “And he zoned out (likes he’s been doing all day) and realised it’s in his lap. So I am sorry to say harry styles did not spit on him.”
