Olivia Wilde, the actress and filmmaker best known for Don’t Worry Darling and Booksmart, has addressed her late-April San Francisco International Film Festival red-carpet moment that led to netizens comparing her to “Gollum” and a “medical cadaver.”
The 42-year-old’s face appeared visibly hollowed, with her eyes seeming more pronounced, in one of the viral interview clips from the event.
During a podcast appearance on Wednesday, June 17, Wilde said her initial reaction to the footage was much the same as that of many critics.
