Chris Pine goes viral for zoning out at the Don't Worry Darling press conference

Harry Styles isn’t letting recent film festival dramas keep him away from the scene as he popped up at Toronto International Film Festival this weekend to promote his upcoming movie My Policeman. It was only last week that the As It Was singer was bizarrely accused of spitting in the lap of his Don’t Worry Darling co-star Chris Pine at Venice Film Festival, thanks to a viral clip that sparked a thousand theories. Pine’s rep rubbished the claims while Harry himself joked about the controversy at a show on his Love On Tour stint. With the spitgate drama now somewhat behind him, the pop star can now focus on promoting his other new movie, My Policeman, which received one of its first screenings at TIFF on Sunday. Harry, 28, attended the film’s press conference alongside co-stars Emma Corrin, Rupert Everett, David Dawson and director Michael Grandage in Ontario. During the event, the former One Direction star opened up about how he got into the mind of playing a repressed gay character. ‘I think he’s very curious,’ Styles said in a clip obtained by Variety. ‘I think he’s someone who is born into a very small world and, if you’re born into that kind of environment, you feel like you know where the edge of the world is. ‘Slowly throughout the story, I think he’s realising that it is a little further away than Brighton.

Harry Styles rocks a full on green look at the premiere of My Policeman during the 2022 Toronto Film Festival at Princess of Wales Theatre on Sunday (September 11) in Toronto, Canada.
