Hilary Duff Posts Sharon Tate-Inspired Photo, Now Sharon’s Sister Is Pissed

Hilary Duff is playing the late Sharon Tate in The Haunting of Sharon Tate, and apparently Sharon’s sister Debra is not about it, calling the film “classless” and “exploitative.”

“It doesn’t matter who it is acting in it—it’s just tasteless,” she told People. “It’s classless how everyone is rushing to release something for the 50th anniversary of this horrific event.”

“I know for a fact she did not have a premonition—awake or in a dream—that she and Jay would have their throat cut,” she said of the film’s portrayal that Sharon had a premonition about her stabbing. “I checked with all of her living friends. None of her friends had any knowledge of this. Tacky, tacky, tacky. It’s a total fabrication.”

Hilary recently shared a photo from set of the film, saying, “Had the incredible opportunity of playing Sharon Tate the past two weeks in an independent movie. She was an amazing woman and it was a true honor.”
