“Most of you have either heard and/or read about Scott Rudin,” began the star, 80, in her Twitter video message.
“And yes, he did approach me to do a film on my life, which I’m still very excited about and my hope is for him to come out on the good side of all this rhetoric, and it’s going to be OK,” she added.
