At the San Francisco International Film Festival, she told Instagram followers “I’m not dead” after her brother Charlie joked she looked like a resurrected corpse.

The episode comes as Wilde promotes “The Invite,” acquired by A24 for more than $12 million after Sundance and due in cinemas in July.
