She is regarded as one of the most professional actresses of her generation, but her commitment is allegedly taking on a whole new turn on the sets of her latest movie, where unit members say she is calling the shots'much to her director's chagrin.
Based on the life of a celebrated achiever, the film is an important one for the actress and will likely be an awards-bait when it releases next year. She famously beat several hopefuls to land the part, and while the heroine has thrown herself into the project completely, not everyone is comfortable with the fact that she has been taking all the important decisions on the set. Some say she has assumed the role of the showrunner because of her director's inexperience'he's a successful technician making his directorial debut here.

Meanwhile, the poor director, keen to reclaim authority on the set without upsetting his leading lady, is slowly asserting himself with the team.
