Working in the “misogynistic hellhole” that is Hollywood

Prior to its release, the press surrounding “Don’t Worry Darling” had little to do with the film’s content. Instead, it was all about Olivia Wilde’s relationship with Florence Pugh and Harry Styles, and her ex-boyfriend Jason Sudeikis.
In the meantime, Olivia recently appeared at Elle’s “Women in Hollywood” event and talked about being a multi-tasker in the industry. She said, “I was an actress, then I started producing, then I finally got the courage to start directing. If I had known Twitter was coming, I wouldn’t have started any of it. I am truly thrilled to be here and to be doing what is undeniably the greatest job on the planet.
Olivia’s comments about social media highlight a unique challenge in filmmaking that has only emerged in the last few years. This means that a variety of speculation and comments on the Internet can affect a project’s publicity and box office performance.
Olivia also expressed that working as a female filmmaker in Hollywood “sometimes makes me want to remove myself from the hellhole of misogyny that characterizes the industry and say, ‘Good night, good luck, I’d rather live off the glass.
