But a defiant Helen Mirren arrived on the set of the controversial Phil Spector movie yesterday to get down to work.
The actress smiled and waved at cameras, perhaps sending a message to the group of apparently 'influential' Hollywood insiders and friends of Lana Clarkson who are protesting her involvement, that she is not backing down.

Threats: Despite the warnings by friends of Lana Clarkson for her to pull out of the controversial film, Helen looked comfortable on the set in Long Island today
The movie has been filming in Long Island and Manhattan for the past month, with Pacino bearing an uncanny likeness to Spector.
The film is understood to be sympathetic to the former Beatles producer and claims he was wrongly jailed for murder.
Dame Helen’s spokesman last night said the actress had received a letter sent to her by the protesters, but added: ‘She’s in the movie. She’s not dropping out. That’s all she’s saying.’
