Here’s what we know so far about the film, directed by Styles’ actor/director beau, Olivia Wilde.

Where can I watch the trailer for Don’t Worry Darling?

The trailer for Don’t Worry Darling is available to watch on YouTube, and was released in September 2021.

In the trailer, shots of the couple are interspersed with scenes of someone holding a gun. A voice asks ‘Where has my husband gone?’ and a spooky, electronic-sounding voice says ‘Nothing for you to concern yourself with, you’ll be on your own for a while’.

“The trailer introduces themes of gaslighting as Florence digs into the truth about her idyllic community.

“Harry: "Our life together. We could lose this."

What is Don’t Worry Darling about?

The film revolves around a couple, Jack and Alice, and is set in an isolated, utopian community in the 1950s California desert.

While little is known about the premise beyond the setting, one of the film’s stars described it as having a ‘compelling’, ‘fun’ and ‘dark and twisted’ storyline. That means that in terms of genre, it’s likely to be a bit of a thriller – so not for the faint of heart.
