Olivia Wilde Recounts 2022 Custody-Papers Incident as Tom Cruise Called It 'Fucked Up'

Q: How does Jason Sudeikis feel about his breakup inspiring Olivia Wilde's new film, The Invite?

There is no public evidence in the provided reporting that Jason Sudeikis has commented on Olivia Wilde saying their breakup inspired *The Invite*. The available accounts come from Wilde, who explained on the *Call Her Daddy* podcast that a March 2020 birthday exchange with Sudeikis made her realize they had become strangers, and that this experience informed the film’s themes of emotional disengagement in a relationship. But neither the news story nor the additional sourced material includes any direct statement from Sudeikis about the movie or his reaction to being part of its inspiration. What is documented is that Wilde has recently spoken warmly about their past and said they are now strong co-parents. Reporting also notes that Sudeikis is engaged to Zoë Kravitz. Beyond that, any claim about how he feels specifically about *The Invite* would be speculation rather than fact.

Olivia Wilde said on "Call Her Daddy" that being served custody papers onstage at 2022 CinemaCon was "incredibly traumatizing," recalling that she finished her speech before breaking down backstage.
Tom Cruise later raised the incident unprompted when they met months afterward, Wilde said, telling her in Las Vegas that what happened was "fucked up."
Wilde also addressed the long-running question over Jason Sudeikis's role, saying he told her he did not know she would be served onstage and that she needs to believe him.
The episode was one of several flashpoints in the "Don't Worry Darling" media storm, which Wilde has said left her feeling pummeled and disconnected during the 2022 press tour.
