Olivia Wilde Served By Ex-Partner While Presenting Her New Movie On-Stage

April 28, 2022 Jordan Ruimy

Did someone potentially get video of this?

I’m not at CinemaCon this year, but you gotta imagine Olivia Wilde being furious about what happened to her on Wednesday.

While presenting “Don’t Worry Darling,” her sophomore effort, on-stage, writer-director Wilde was abruptly interrupted by a mysterious man who gave her an envelope. It turns out, Wilde was being “served” by ex-partner Jason Sudeikis for the custody of their two children.

What a time to do it. Of course, Sudeikis denies his intentions were to “serve” Wilde at that very moment at CinemaCon. This was supposed to be a very exciting time for her, she was in the middle of comparing her new film to “Inception,” “The Matrix” and “The Truman Show.” Automatic masterpiece.
