She then took time to express how grateful she was to the devoted fans who, 'have bought tickets and those who have already seen it'.
Florence explained the amazing experience she always feels when seeing a film come to life on the big screen.
'Whenever I watch massive impressive movie moments on massive screens I always remind myself that there is a boom just inches from the frame I'm watching,' she typed, adding, 'Or marks on the floor just below the actors waists.'

The Midsommar actress expressed the memorable long days she spent on set with the other cast members and talented crew.

Throughout the small tribute, Florence made no mention of Olivia.
Later, Florence uploaded a second post where she shared several more behind the scenes snaps from the film.
These included one of her pulling a silly face while in the make-up chair and others of her co-stars Nick Kroll, Asif Afir and Kiki Layne.
Filming for Don't Worry Darling began mid-pandemic in 2020, and came to an end one year later in February 2021.
Close to the movie's special premiere and screening at the Venice Film Festival earlier in September, drama arose revolving around cast members.

Drama: In recent months, drama has risen in regards to the movie, including Shia LaBeouf allegedly being 'fired' and disagreements between Florence and Olivia
There were claims that Shia LaBeouf was fired from the production, which the actor has adamantly denied. He was originally cast to play the character of Jack, but was replaced by Harry Styles.
According to Variety, emails Shia had sent to Olivia showed that the Transformers actor had written, 'You and I both know the reasons for my exit. I quit your film because your actors and I couldn't find time to rehearse.'
On the other hand, Olivia claimed to the publication that he was fired, adding, 'His process was not conducive to the ethos that I demand in my productions.'

Shortly before Florence's Instagram tribute to the psychological thriller, sources recently informed Vulture that all was far from paradise during production between Florence and Olivia.
According to an unnamed insider on the movie, Pugh and Wilde came to blows over Wild's 'frequent, unexplained absences,' on set which resulted in a 'screaming match' between the two women. 'Olivia and Harry would just disappear,' an insider added to the publication.
The apparent feud came to light last month when Wilde referred to Pugh as 'Miss Flo' and said she needed a 'wake-up call' during the rehearsal period of the movie, in a video to actor Shia LaBeouf that was leaked.
The report even claims that the spat between the pair got so bad, it was taken to the to the highest-ranking Warner Bros. executive at the time - Toby Emmerich - who had to play peacemaker.

Emmerich is said to have facilitated a 'long negotiation process' to make sure that Pugh would stick with the project after filming wrapped and ensure she would be around to promote it.
However, as has previously been reported, Pugh significantly pulled back on her promotional duties for the film, appearing at the Venice premiere but did little else - and recently skipped out on the New York premiere, an odd move for a lead star.
Wilde also failed to dispel the drama in Venice, as it appeared handlers went to great lengths to keep both actresses apart during the photo-call for the event.
Despite the alleged drama revolving Don't Worry Darling, the film officially premiered in theaters throughout the United States earlier on Friday.
