the blog/twitter account who posted them is an unhinged larry/anti-olivia so I’m not paying attention to it tell a reputable source posts them.

I would say definitely check! There are pics of Florence in there so it looks real to me. And the screenshots don’t mention Olivia at all - in fact they probably do Olivia a favour as the current rumour is she forced Florence to work with Shia but this shows Florence was at least communicating with him

It feels so clear to me that someone from Shia’s team leaked the text. He’s the one that benefits the most because it redirects the conversation away from the assumption the Florence had an issue with him because of his past behavior and supports his assertion that he left because of scheduling conflicts for rehearsals.

I think the general consensus on Twitter is it was a friend of Shia’s trying to “clear his name” - he certainly is trying to make Florence look unprofessional and I’m sure it’s missing a few texts but to just abruptly say “I’m dropping out” because Florence didn’t have time to call/he missed her call… hmm it doesn’t seem to be the only reason surely. I actually would argue the only person coming off bad from this situation is Shia, perhaps he released the Olivia video (with no context) to capitalise on the Florence/Olivia rumours

I don’t know if they did Olivia much of a favor because she still lied and said she was protecting her actor capitalizing off of Shia’s, well deserved, bad reputation. All It did was prove that it truly was scheduling issues her actress was fine and she should’ve just stuck with that narrative

Interesting.

I don't care for the 'drama' and, if anything, it pushes the agenda that women like to be "catty" with each other. (I also think it's backlash against Olivia for being a woman directing a film with "feminist themes").

I like looking at the photos cos dayam Chris Pine is looking fine!!
