and star as just “absurd gossip”.
Now, if you’ve been keeping up with the drama (and there’s a LOT of it), you’ll know that things behind the scenes are rumoured to have been pretty fkn messy. The latest tea was a bombshell report by , where a source seemingly confirmed the rumours of beef between Wilde and Pugh.
“Olivia and Harry would just disappear,” the source said.
They then claimed at one point Pugh and Florence had a “screaming match” during filming.
Apparently what followed was top Warner Bros. studio execs like having to get involved in a “long negotiation process” to get Pugh to participate in promo for the film “in any way”.
However, a huge *40* staff involved in the production of have responded directly to Vulture’s report and delivered a spicy statement to .

“Any allegations about unprofessional behavior on the set of are completely false,” it continued.
“Olivia is an incredible leader and director who was present with and involved in every aspect of production. She ran this set with class and respect for everyone involved. There was never a screaming match between our director and anyone, let alone a member of our cast.
“We are happy to put our names on this, as real people who worked on the film, and who have witnessed and benefitted from the collaborative and safe space Olivia creates as a director and leader. We’re also thrilled that the movie is in theaters this weekend. We can’t wait for you to see it on the big screen.”
Ooft. Some might write this off as damage control, but the amount of staff who signed the statement is a pretty big deal.
ICYMI, Vulture also reported that Warner Bros. execs aren’t super pleased with the chaos that has been this press tour.
“Olivia is either a mad genius who just figured out a way to make people more aware of the movie in a way that just drives up the box office, or she doesn’t have any self-awareness that she is fucking up her movie,” a different source told the publication.
For its part, Warner Bros. have denied that there’s any beef between it and Wilde.
In a statement, CEOs and said the studio was “so proud of the work that Olivia Wilde has done”, per .

We had . We had. We had . We had thedrama.
Throughout the drama, Wilde has asserted there’s no beef between her and Florence Pugh.
In a recent interview with , Wilde popped in a bit of pseudo-feminist rhetoric and lavished Pugh with praise.
“It is very rare that people assume the best from women in power,” she said.
“I think they don’t often give us the benefit of the doubt. Florence did the job I hired her to do, and she did it exquisitely. She blew me away.
“Every day I was in awe of her, and we worked very well together.”
In short, I think we can all agree: this is both the wildest and most persistent celebrity drama in a hot minute. is probably taking notes.
