Harry Styles Kisses Nick Kroll On The Lips At Venice Film Festival And It's Sweet
Harry Styles grabbed co-star Nick Kroll and kissed him on the lips after their film “Don’t Worry Darling” premiered at the Venice Film Festival on Monday, as seen in a clip shared by Variety’s Ramin Setoodeh.

The exchange, amid a standing ovation, was a brief ray of sunshine through the clouds that have gathered over director Olivia Wilde’s psychological thriller.
To summarize: Styles has been accused of spitting on another castmate, Chris Pine, who’s been accused of conspicuously checking out of the whole affair during a press conference as Styles and Wilde, who are dating, spoke. As if that weren’t enough, Wilde and “Don’t Worry” actor Florence Pugh are reportedly feuding ― Wilde has declined to address the matter, says she won’t fuel internet rumors ― and actor Shia LaBeouf, who was originally cast in the film before being replaced by Styles, has contested Wilde’s assertion that she fired him, claiming he actually quit.
It’s a lot to unpack (and this is without getting into the lukewarm critical reception of the movie itself), and a brief smooch won’t solve anything, but it was sweet to see just the same.
Fans thought so, too.
