The Titanic actress says her titular upcoming isn't an absolute biopic and only covers the most interesting part of the model-turned-photographer Miller. "To make a story about Lee's whole life, that's a series worth for HBO," says the Oscar-winning actor, adding, "what we wanted to do was find the most interesting decade in her life, the one that defined who she was and what she became because of what she went through."
