According to Deadline.com Amy was due to appear on the show in order to promote her new film Big Eyes but the when the 40-year-old stated that she would prefer if they didn’t ask her questions about the Sony hacking scandal she was cut from the show.
The report stated that she was left upset following the treatment as she believed that she wouldn’t have felt comfortable answering about something “that had nothing to do with her.”
Amy pictured with One Direction earlier this week.
Meanwhile, the Weinstein Company who produced Big Eyes said they were fully in support of the actress.
“We firmly stand behind Amy Adams,” a statement from the company read. “We’ve been lucky enough to have had her talents grace several of our films.
“We are certain her fellow actors and directors would all agree, she is nothing but the consummate professional both on and off set,” it continued.
“Amy decided to speak up for herself and express her disappointment that Today would feel the need to ask her a question she did not feel comfortable with, and rather than respect her opinion or continue the discussion the reaction was to pull her appearance from the show.”
