Mirren critical of online nude scenes

Dame Helen Mirren has criticised movie bosses for putting screenshots of nude scenes online “for everybody to see”.

The Oscar-winning actress has disrobed in films over the years from 1979’s Caligula to Calendar Girls and The Roman Spring Of Mrs Stone.

But the 72-year-old said the privacy of stars on set was no longer respected.

Dame Helen said: “There used to be an understanding of privacy. There is no understanding of privacy now. Privacy is completely gone.

“(There are) random people taking photos, emails being hacked, people doing screen grabs.”

The Queen star added: “It used to be if you did a nude scene, for example, closed set, no photography.

“Now they (take) a screenshot from the movie and put it on the internet for everybody to see.”

Dame Helen also said media giants such as Netflix had been “devastating” for film-makers like her husband.
