Olivia Wilde was handed 'personal and confidential' documents onstage while introducing her new movie

  • Filmmaker Olivia Wilde was served with "personal and confidential" documents at CinemaCon Tuesday.
  • The actress was presenting her new film "Don't Worry Darling" and carried on afterward.

Actress and filmmaker Olivia Wilde was handed an envelope labeled "personal and confidential" in the middle of a presentation on her latest movie at CinemaCon Tuesday.

"This is for me?" Wilde asked after an unidentified woman wearing a mask walked up to the stage and passed her a mysterious manila folder.

Deadline reported Wednesday that the contents may have been custody papers from actor Jason Sudeikis, with whom she shares two kids. The couple separated in November 2020 after a long engagement.

Variety, citing an anonymous source, reported that although "Papers were drawn up" for a custody arrangement, the "Ted Lasso" star "had no prior knowledge" that Wilde would get served with the papers during her onstage appearance. Insider was not able to independently confirm those details.

Wilde was presenting her new film, "Don't Worry Darling" during the Warner Bros. CinemaCon session at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.

After opening the document, Wilde said, "Okay, got it," and proceeded with her presentation, according to the account of Insider reporter Jason Guerrasio, who was in attendance.

The convention's director Mitch Neuhauser told Insider he could not speak to the contents of the envelope, or how the individual was able to deliver it to Wilde. But going forward, he said, the convention would be rethinking its security.

"We've never in the history of the convention had an incident where a delegate has approached the stage who is not authorized to be there," he said. "In light of this incident, we are re-evaluating our security procedures to ensure the safety of all of our attendees, and that's what I'm going to be doing immediately."

Representatives for Wilde and Sudeikis did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
