As you may have seen, Kate is currently promoting her new movie,Lee, in which she portrays Lee Miller, the acclaimed model-turned-photojournalist who was a war correspondent for Vogue magazine during World War II.

The film includes nude scenes, and last month, Kate — who’s talked openly in the past aboutfacing scrutinyover her body — toldHarper’s Bazaarthat, while shooting a scene in a bikini, a crew member suggested she ought to adjust her posture to make her stomach look flatter.

Kate emphasized that it’s incredibly important to her to present her authentic self in her movies, saying: “I take pride in it because it is my life on my face, and that matters. It wouldn’t occur to me to cover that up.”
