Olivia Wilde had a major breakthrough with her 2019 directorial debut Booksmart, and now details are rolling in about her follow-up project. What's particularly exciting is the cast she's assembled.

Don't Worry Darling is a psychological thriller set in a utopian community in the California desert in the 1950s. The film's script will be rewritten by Katie Silberman, who co-wrote Booksmart.

But the cast is the real draw. In addition to a supporting role from Wilde herself, the film will star Florence Pugh, Shia LaBeouf and Chris Pine.

New Line is producing the film, which Variety reports is a "high priority" project. Of course, production schedules and release dates are all up in the air right now so time will tell when this thing actually shows up.
