Fans Convinced Harry Styles Spit On Chris Pine At The 'Don't Worry Darling' Premiere

Social media is in a frenzy after they spotted Harry Styles spitting at Chris Pine as he took his seat next to him at the Venice Film Festival.

The 28-year-old singer who is part of the movie Don't Worry Darling caused quite a stir after he allegedly approached his chair and appeared to gob in the actor's lap in front of his girlfriend, Olivia Wilde.

During the absolutely bizarre interaction, Chris Pine who is clapping as Styles takes back his assigned seat, stops in his track, looks down at his leg and sticks his tongue out in absolute disbelief.

The shocked actor then looks at the singer amusingly who is now acting all innocent and seems to be adjusting his jacket and smiling around the room, apparently too busy to notice Pine's amused response. 

A source close to Chris Pine told MailOnline: 'Harry Styles did not spit at all. People are seeing some odd illusion of sorts online that is clearly deceiving.'

What is here to question the situation is what really happened in front of Wilde, fans have speculated that the singer-turned-actor did indeed aim and spit into Pine's lap during the prestigious event. 

But others are convinced that Pine was just fiddling with his sunglasses, which were placed between his legs. 

Chris' representative told People: '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.

Well, this is the latest in the series of drama between the actors of Don't Worry Darling - who have stirred up a barrage of gossip ahead of the film's premiere.

In 2021, troubled star Shia LaBeouf was fired from the movie after reportedly clashing with Wilde on set. Something that Wilde appeared to confirm in an interview.

However, everyone was left shocked after LaBeouf provided evidence in August 2022 that confirmed that Wilde had sought to keep him on the film. Part of that evidence saw Wilde speak disparagingly about the movie's lead, Florence Pugh. 

That led to more reports that Pugh and Wilde had beef on set. In the lead-up to the film's release, Pugh did little-to-no promotion for the movie. 

In a red carpet interview just prior to the alleged spitting incident, Pine spoke lovingly about his time working with Pugh. 

The rumor now is that Styles, Wilde's boyfriend, saw this as a sign that Pine was taking sides in the argument and this is how he reacted. 

Well, both the stars are yet to comment on the situation but it seems like the spitting incident is one of the most discussed topics on Twitter today.

Another video from Variety's Ramin Setoodeh shows another angle of Styles taking his seat, and seemingly lasts a few seconds longer.

This video also appears to show Pine and Styles chatting briefly, though it's unclear what was said during the interaction.

Styles seems to be having a relatively polite conversation with his co-star, which seems as if it would be unlikely if he had just spat on him.

 Sources have since confirmed this is not true.
