Shortly following Monday’s Don’t Worry Darling premiere, internet was flooded with the speculation that Styles spit on costar Pine when he bent down to take his seat next to the actor. “This is a ridiculous story — a complete fabrication and the result of an odd online illusion that is clearly deceiving and allows for foolish speculation,” Pine’s rep said in a statement to Variety.

“Just to be clear, Harry Styles did not spit on Chris Pine. There is nothing but respect between these two men and any suggestion otherwise is a blatant attempt to create drama that simply does not exist.” A source also told the outlet that there was no tension around Styles and Pine during the premiere and that a potential spitting incident was flagged by no one during the event.

Anna Kendrick sets directorial debut with true-crime murder thriller The Dating Game

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film, from a Black List script by Ian McDonald, is described as the stranger-than-fiction story of Cheryl Bradshaw, a bachelorette candidate on hit ’70s TV matchmaking show The Dating Game who picked the funny and handsome Bachelor Number One, Rodney Alcala.

“But Bradshaw’s fairy-tale date takes a terrifying turn when the bachelor drops his charming façade to reveal the truth: Alcala is in fact a psychopathic serial killer.” Kendrick is set to direct, produce and star in the upcoming thriller that is based on a true story. Alongside Kendrick, J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules are attached to produce through BoulderLight Pictures and Roy Lee and Miri Yoon via Vertigo Entertainment.

Screenwriter McDonald will executive produce. The film is currently in preproduction with principal photography set for late October. “I’ve loved this script from the moment I read it. And while I was obviously thrilled to be playing the character of Cheryl, I felt so connected to the story, the tone and the themes around gender and intimacy, that when the opportunity came up to direct the film, I jumped at it,” said Kendrick, “It feels meant to be.”

Alcala, who died last July on death row, was convicted of murdering six women and one girl in the 1970s. He became prominently known as the Dating Game Killer because he appeared on the matchmaking show amid his murder spree.
