The Invite: Olivia Wilde reminds us she's a skilled director

Four years on, Olivia Wilde is finally back in the directing chair. After a brilliant, barnstorming debut with 2019 graduation comedy Booksmart, Wilde had perhaps the worst sophomore experience of anyone’s life with Don’t Worry Darling. I won’t drag you through it again, but it goes something like: Harry Styles, angry fans, beef with Shia LaBeouf, divorce from Jason Sudeikis, Spitgate. What’s more, the film was widely panned and will chiefly be remembered for the drama surrounding it.
