The films in the Top Ten that opened this weekend at the box office:

Don’t Worry Darling is a 2022 American sci-fi psychological thriller film directed by Olivia Wilde from a screenplay by Katie Silberman, based on a story by Carey Van Dyke, Shane Van Dyke, and Silberman. The film features an ensemble cast that includes Florence Pugh, Harry Styles, Wilde, Gemma Chan, KiKi Layne, Nick Kroll, and Chris Pine.

Following the critical success of Wilde’s directorial debut Booksmart (2019), a multi-studio bidding war took place for the rights of her second film, with New Line Cinema eventually winning. Pugh joined the cast in April 2020, with Styles being added that September, replacing Shia LaBeouf. Filming began in Los Angeles in October, lasting through February 2021. The film’s reportedly troubled production was the subject of media attention and controversy, including conflicting reports regarding the circumstances of LaBeouf’s departure and alleged conflicts between Wilde and Pugh.

Next week sees the release of: Smile, God’s Creatures, Vesper, Wolf Pack, and a plethora of other films. Find my predictions on these releases in the weekly The Bottom Line column. A preview: Don’t Worry, Darling will be Number One at the box office for the second week in a row.
