The Master has already caused controversy ahead of its release due to the timely subject matter it covers.

In the film, Amy plays the wife of a cult leader, played by Joaquin Phoenix, leading to comparisons to Scientology and its founder L. Ron Hubbard.

But Amy said in a recent interview that she never really considered the comparison when taking on the project.

She said: 'I guess that’s for people to discover on their own. I didn’t think about it a lot, nor was it something that I explored at great length when going into it.

I always say, "See the film, and then if that’s something you’re interested in, sort of finding the parallels, then you’ll find the parallels."

'But I just see it as more of a character study. I don’t think that Paul was trying to make a movie about Scientology.'

Mother-of-one Amy has also been busy starring in open air musical Into the Woods! In Central Park.

Marking The Muppets star's debut on the New York stage, the ambitious fairytale musical also stars Donna Murphy and Denis O’Hare and has received rave reviews.

The Oscar nominated star has two-year-old Aviana with with fiance Darren Le Gallo.
