Harry Styles set for awkward run-in with Olivia Wilde’s ex, Jason Sudeikis

Harry Styles is set to run into his girlfriend’s famous ex, Jason Sudeikis, as they film separate projects at a studio in London.

When Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde hooked up, it sparked fury from her ex-fiance Jason Sudeikis.

Now the two men could come face-to-face in an awkward encounter while filming their latest projects, The Sun reports.

Former One Direction member Styles is jetting into London to work alongside The Crown star Emma Corrin on new movie My Policeman, in which he plays a troubled lover with a secret.

And he may be shooting at the same studios where Sudeikis is based for his Apple TV sitcom Ted Lasso.

A source said: “Harry is appearing in My Policeman. It’s a big production backed by Amazon based on a very successful book, so there are high hopes for it.

“But the filming process could prove pretty awkward because bosses are trying to secure studio space at the same complex where Olivia’s ex Jason is working too.

“If both are sharing a studio complex, there’s a real possibility for a very awkward encounter.

“It’s the sort of thing that sounds like a film plot in itself. You almost couldn’t write it.”

Styles and Wilde’s romance emerged in January, when pictures showed them hand-in-hand together at the California wedding of his manager.

There had been controversy over when exactly Wilde split from Sudeikis, with a statement saying they had separated in November.

Sudeikis is understood to have been heartbroken by the news Wilde had moved on with Styles, who she had gushed about months earlier after casting him in film Don’t Worry Darling, which she is directing.

Sudeikis is said to remain keen to salvage the relationship and has since been seen hugging Wilde while the pair co-parent their two children.

But US reports this week say the romance is intensifying between Styles and Wilde, with the pair “inseparable” away from the set.
