New trailer shows the sinister side of Don't Worry Darling

It comes out in cinemas in September

Author: Hazel ScottPublished 22nd Jul 2022

We're only a couple of months away from the highly-anticipated cinematic release of Don't Worry Darling, starring Harry Styles, Florence Pugh, Olivia Wilde and Chris Pine. The film is due to hit cinemas on 23rd September and in the meantime, there is a brand new trailer we can watch.

Released by Warner Brothers, the second trailer dropped on 22nd July and gives a deeper dive into the storyline of the psychological thriller.

Set in the picture-perfect town Victory in the 1950s, the film follows couple Alice (Florence Pugh) and Jack (Harry Styles) as Alice discovers things aren't quite what they appear to be in the idyllic town.

The film's synopsis reads: 'Alice (Pugh) and Jack (Styles) are lucky to be living in the idealized community of Victory, the experimental company town housing the men who work for the top-secret Victory Project and their families. The 1950’s societal optimism espoused by their CEO, Frank (Pine)—equal parts corporate visionary and motivational life coach—anchors every aspect of daily life in the tight-knit desert utopia.

'But when cracks in their idyllic life begin to appear, exposing flashes of something much more sinister lurking beneath the attractive façade, Alice can’t help questioning exactly what they’re doing in Victory, and why.'

While the first trailer, released in May, gave an overview of the characters, the community and a hint that some cracks were appearing in the town's utopian façade, the second trailer shows a lot more of the mysterious and sinister side of the story.

Not only does Olivia Wilde star in the film as Bunny alongside her real-life boyfriend Harry, she also directs the movie. The film is based on a book by the same name, written by Carey Van Dyke, Shane Van Dyke and Katie Silberman.

While many fans know Harry for his singing, this isn't the first film he has appeared in. As well as releasing his hugely successful third album 'Harry's House' he's put a lot of time into his acting career in recent years.

After his acting debut in Dunkirk in 2017, fans got to see a snippet of Harry as Eros at the end of Marvel film Eternals, a role which he will likely return to in the future. You can also see him play secretly gay policeman Tom Burgess who is caught in a love triangle in My Policeman, which is due to come out on 21st October.

Check out all of the films and TV shows Harry Styles has been in:

iCarly (2012)

Back in the One Direction glory days, the boys delighted Nickelodeon fans when they appeared in the fifth season of iCarly in 2012, in an episode aptly named 'iGo One Direction'.

Saturday Night Live (2012 - 2019)

Both as part of One Direction and solo, Harry Styles has appeared on Saturday Night Live - five times in total between 2012 and 2019.

One Direction This Is Us (2013)

So we know there's no acting involved in this one, but One Direction had their fair share of concert films. As well as 2013's One Direction This Is Us (a 3D documentary concert film), they also had One Direction: Where We Are – The Concert Film in 2014.

Family Guy (2016)

The ultimate honour - having yourself turned into a cartoon to feature on the hilarious animated show Family Guy. Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne and Harry Styles all appeared in a scene alongside Stewie Griffin, with both Louis and Liam's real voices featuring. The episode aired in 2016, which avid fans may notice due to Harry's signature long locks.

Dunkirk (2017)

In 2017, Harry took on a more serious role in the war film Dunkirk. Making his movie debut, Harry played the role of Alex, with the film director claiming the singer has an "old-fashioned face".

The Late Late Show with James Corden (2017/2019)

Harry appeared on The Late Late Show with James Corden in 2017 and 2019. Both times he appeared a guest host on the show, the first time was very last minute as James Corden's wife went into labour giving Harry just 2.5 hours notice to fill in!

Eternals (2021)

Harry caused quite the stir when he was featured in the end credits of Marvel film Eternals, with many excited at the prospect of him entering the Marvel universe. Introduced briefly as Eros, brother of Thanos, fans can't wait to see Harry return in later films.
