Talking to Associated Press MPA directed her to remove additional scenes labelling them too risqué said, “There’s a lot that had to be taken out of the trailer. The MPA came down hard on me and the trailer at the last second and I had to cut some shots, which I was upset about because I thought they it took it up another notch. But of course, we still live in a really puritanical society.”
The Don’t Worry Darling filmmaker added, “I do think the lack of eroticism in American film is kind of new. Then when it comes to female pleasure, it’s something that we just don’t see very often unless you’re talking about queer cinema.” Wilde while talking about her Harry Styles and Florence Pugh starrer had said something similar.

Wilde in her AP interview said “people are upset with me already over this,” nod to the oral s*x scene that has irked many. “I think it’s a testament to the film. We want to be provocative. The idea is not to make you feel safe.”
