Just hours later, the actress reposted the brand reveal on her Instagram Story with the clever caption, "I find this very pleasing." 08 of 12 Special Shoutouts After her movie Don't Worry Darling wrapped, the director posted tributes to the film's actors and crew on Instagram — including one for the leading man in her film, Styles. In the caption, Wilde explained how most male actors don't want to appear in female-led films and take the lesser role, which in turn makes those movies hard to finance. But Styles jumped in without reservation to play backup to Florence Pugh's leading role. "No joke, it is harrrrrd to find actors who recognize why it might be worth it to allow for a woman to hold the spotlight. Enter: @harrystyles, our 'Jack,' " Wilde wrote alongside a black-and-white shot of Styles sitting in a classic car. "Not only did he relish the opportunity to allow for the brilliant @florencepugh to hold center 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." Styles joined the cast late after Wilde let Shia LaBeouf go from the leading role. 09 of 12 A 'Revelation' Rachel Murray/Getty; Dia Dipasupil/Getty The director shared the first full trailer of Don't Worry Darling exclusively with audiences at CinemaCon in Las Vegas in April, calling the project "ambitious" and saying that Styles' performance is "truly a revelation." Wilde also teased the Grammy winner, referring to him as "an up-and-coming actor with no other career that I'm aware of." 10 of 12 'Happier Than Ever' Olivia Wilde; Harry Styles. John Shearer/Getty; Dia Dipasupil/FilmMagic Wilde briefly spoke about the spotlight on the couple's relationship in a cover story for Vogue's January 2022 issue. "It's obviously really tempting to correct a false narrative," she told the outlet of the attention surrounding their romance. "I think what you realize is that when you're really happy, it doesn't matter what strangers think about you. All that matters to you is what's real, and what you love, and who you love." She concluded, "I'm happier than I've ever been. And I'm healthier than I've ever been, and it's just wonderful to feel that." Styles shared similar sentiments in an interview with SiriusXM months later. "I also feel really happy at the moment and I feel like it's the first time I feel like I'm making music and putting music out from a real place of personal freedom," he said. "And that is a really liberating place to [be] creating from and now putting it out." 11 of 12 Rolling in the Deep Harry Styles, Olivia Wilde. Kevin Mazur/WireImage, Stephen Lovekin/Shutterstock Continuing to keep chatter on their relationship to a minimum, Wilde told Variety she wasn't "going to say anything about" her relationship "because I've never seen a relationship benefit from being dragged into the public arena." "We both go out of our way to protect our relationship," she continued. "I think it's out of experience, but also just out of deep love." She shared similar sentiments with Vanity Fair, adding, "I think once you crack open the window, you can't then be mad when mosquitoes come in. It's like, 'You opened the window.'

Vittorio Zunino Celotto/Getty Images In an interview with Howard Stern for his SiriusXM show, Styles was asked point-blank by the shock jock, "You fell in love on a movie set?" "Oh, wow, how to answer this question?" the actor and singer answered of his time filming Don't Worry Darling (cast pictured). "I had a wonderful experience being directed by Olivia. I think there is something that obviously ... acting is very uncomfortable at times. I think you have to trust a lot." He also noted, "Being able to trust your director is a gift." "That was very helpful, and it really meant for a really nice experience working on that movie," Styles said.
