Months after its release, Dakota Johnson and Sean Penn‘s Daddio recently had a captive audience.
Qantas Airways apologized to passengers on a recent flight from Sydney to Japan after playing the R-rated Christy Hall drama, which one traveler described as “40 minutes of penis and boobs.”
“The movie was clearly not suitable to play for the whole flight and we sincerely apologise to customers for this experience,” a Qantas spokesperson told The Guardian. “All screens were changed to a family-friendly movie for the rest of the flight, which is our standard practice for the rare cases where individual movie selection isn’t possible. We are reviewing how the movie was selected.”
One disgruntled passenger noted on social media that they had no ability to turn off the movie as the screen appeared locked until staff switched to another movie.
“These poor kids and their parents because you should’ve heard the audible gasps across the plane,” wrote another person who thought the selected Johnson movie would have been Madame Web, adding: “I honestly don’t know if that would’ve been worse.”
In Daddio, Johnson plays a young woman who take a cab from JFK Airport to her Manhattan home, during which she has an unexpectedly deep conversation with her driver (Penn) about life, love, sex, death, power dynamics and vulnerability.
The film debuted last September at the Telluride Film Festival after landing a SAG-AFTRA agreement to allow the cast promote the film amid the Hollywood strikes. Premiering June 28 in theaters, Daddio grossed $1,098,973 million worldwide.
