Although Harry Styles’ love life hijacked a press tour, Anne Hathaway refuses to let that happen to her new film.
The Idea of You star, 41, was quick to deny rumors that the upcoming romantic comedy would be inspired by the One Direction star’s previous high-profile romance with an older woman, Olivia Wilde.
‘No! Everyone needs to relax,” she said E! News at the SXSW premiere. “Sorry, I probably shouldn’t be so reactive about it.” I just think no.
Based on Robinne Lee’s 2017 book, Hathaway plays Solène, a 40-year-old divorced mother, who takes her teenage daughter (Ella Rubin) to Coachella at the suggestion of her ex-husband (Reid Scott).
There, she begins a romance with Hayes Campbell (Nicholas Galitzine), the 24-year-old singer of a famous boy band.
Anne Hathaway was quick to deny rumors that her new film The Idea of You was inspired by Harry Styles.
Fans believe the film is inspired by Harry Styles, 30, and his romance with Olivia Wilde, 40.
Styles, 30, began dating his Don’t Worry Darling co-star and director Olivia Wilde, 40, after filming the 2022 film.
The One Direction alumnus previously sparked controversy aged 17 when he dated late TV personality Caroline Flack, who was 14 years his senior.
Galitzine also addressed the speculation. “It’s funny just because it’s become something in itself,” he told E!
“We tried to distance ourselves from that, and I think Hayes is such a wonderful character in his own right,” the British actor added.
“We used so many amazing references: BTS for a lot of the choreography, which was really awesome,” he explained. “There are so many references there.”
In another interview with Additional, Hathaway once again shut down the rumor. “No, just no,” she said, adding that the film is about “what it takes to get over a broken heart.”
“And so, in this relationship, I think she starts to think that it’s just going to be a little bit of fun,” Hathaway explained.
Based on Robinne Lee’s 2017 book, Hathaway plays a 40-year-old divorced mother who takes her teenage daughter to Coachella, where she sparks a romance with a young pop star.
‘No! Everyone needs to relax,” Hathaway said of the Styles speculation.
Her co-star Nicholas Galitzine said they had “tried to distance themselves” from the rumours.
“And then she realizes that it’s something more, and if she really wants to be a part of it, she’s going to have to let go of other things,” she added.
In real life, the actress is married to actor/producer Adam Shulman, with whom she shares two sons.
The Idea of You premieres May 2 on Prime Video.
