Olivia Wilde Shares Says She Showed Son, 12, NSFW The Invite Scenes
Olivia Wilde Reacts to Rumors of Screaming Match With Florence Pugh on Don’t Worry Darling Set
Olivia Wilde is sending out an invite into her private life as a mom.
The director—who shares kids Otis, 12, and Daisy, 8, with ex Jason Sudeikis—posted a time-lapse video of her son sitting in on an editing session for The Invite, marveling at the full-circle moment since she used to do the same with her filmmaker mom Leslie Cockburn.
"Found this video Otis made on my phone while we were editing the movie," Wilde wrote on her Instagram Story June 26, explaining how she used to sit in on sessions with Cockburn, now 73, as she edited 60 Minutes segments, "and it made me cry."
She jokingly added, "And now my kid watches me edit scenes about pegging BUT STILL it’s sweet."
Indeed, Wilde—who also costars in The Invite alongside Seth Rogen, Penélope Cruz and Edward Norton—is very much a hands-on parent. As she explained in a recent episode of Call Her Daddy, "I’m a very present mom even when I’m not able to be consistently present."
“I’m a co-parent. I share custody, and I am really grateful for the opportunity to have this space when I am completely with my kids, completely engaged with them and they are the focus," she told host Alex Cooper on the podcast's June 17 episode. "It’s an interesting thing: Once you are sharing custody with someone, it shifts the way you think about parenting.”
However, it did take the Don't Worry Darling filmmaker some time to adjust to her new normal, especially since she and Sudeikis, 50, had what she described as a "really bumpy, bumpy ride" before their 2020 breakup. Take, for example, when she was served custody papers while onstage at CinemaCon 2022.

"Jason has told me that he did not know," Wilde noted to Cooper. "I need to believe that in order to continue."
"People are never their best selves when they’re engaging in that kind of process," she continued, acknowledging the roles their lawyers potentially played in their legal battle. "It was so f--ked up in so many ways."
But now, Wilde and the Ted Lasso star have forged an amicable co-parenting dynamic.
"Whether or not he knew it was going to happen," she added, "I know it really hurt him to see it happening to me."
