Filming fun: The cast appeared in high spirits as they had fun on set
In a lengthy post, Florence wrote: “Forgot to post to say a major tidbit.. The Wonder is out and ready to be seen in select cinemas in the UK and US!”
‘Today was a wonderful way to kick off what this little film deserves. We shot it last summer, through thick mud, surprising sudden mountain rainstorms and equally surprising brief periods of sunshine.
“Thank you to everyone who helped us during our stay. Fans who waited and cheered. The locals who let us transform their peaceful village into our 1860s film set. We greatly appreciate your support. It really was a dream way to spend our summer – Ireland, we loved you.
“If you can, try to watch these films on the big screen. The sound, the colors, the cinematography…everything is made to be widely enjoyed! Likewise, if it’s not playing near you, it’s on Netflix later this month. Hope you enjoy. Thanks for all the love so far.

It comes amid reports Florence and Harry Styles shared an off-screen kiss after developing ‘instant chemistry’ on the set of Don’t Worry Darling – weeks before the One Direction star, 28, begins a relationship with his married director, Olivia Wilde.
The beleaguered film, in which Styles and Pugh play a married couple, was overshadowed by a series of controversies before and after its memorably awkward premiere at the Venice Film Festival in September.
Notably, Pugh didn’t recognize Wilde on the red carpet following an on-set argument – reportedly sparked by the actress’ discomfort with her director who begins a very public relationship with Styles during the shooting the film on location in Los Angeles.
Sources say their fallout stems from the initial chemistry shared by Pugh and her on-screen husband before he became romantically involved with Wilde.

An insider told The Sun: “Harry and Florence had chemistry from the start, which translated incredibly well on screen. One night they kissed for a bit, all very lighthearted and a bit of fun, and that’s all.
“It was told by a few members of the production, otherwise no one would have known about it.” Harry was very single at the time and Florence had split from Zach Braff, although she kept quiet to – ironically – avoid the headlines.
“There was no cheating or misbehavior on anyone’s part. However, later on Harry and Olivia started spending more time together – sneaking in for coffees, hanging out in the caravans the each other and sharing little routine intimacies.
The insider added that it was clear Harry and Olivia had a real connection and Florence would have been unhappy when pictures of them holding hands surfaced.
It was already rumored that there was tension between the two women, with Harry and Olivia’s budding romance making matters worse.
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Styles, Pugh and Wilde for comment.
A report from Page Six in late July claimed that Pugh was angry with Wilde for hooking up with main man Harry Styles during production — while still engaged to Jason Sudeikis — before they split in November.

“I can tell you for sure that Flo seeing Olivia and Harry on top of each other on set didn’t go well because Olivia was still with Jason when she first met Harry,” said The source.
Pugh was asked by an Italian reporter at the event about what she found “inspiring” about the film and appeared to do a sly dig at Wilde.
She replied, “I think it’s very, very inspiring to see a woman step back and say ‘no’ and question everything.” It’s very exciting to see a woman do this on and off camera.
When asked when she ‘says ‘no’ off camera, Pugh jokingly replied, ‘When do I say ‘no’? When someone says I can’t have cake.
