As for Wilde, she has always said that getting Styles was the best thing for the project, later explaining that: “A little-known fact: Most male actors don’t want to play supporting roles in movies directed by women. The industry has led them to believe that it diminishes their power (i.e. their financial worth) to accept these roles, which is one of the reasons it’s so hard to get funding for movies centered around female stories,” adding, “Enter: @harrystyles, our ‘Jack’. Not only did she relish the opportunity to allow the brilliant @florencepugh to take center stage as our ‘Alice,’ but she infused every scene with a nuanced sense of humanity.”
