Pamela Anderson has said she would "love to invite" Lily James to the debut of her documentary Pamela, a love story - despite Lily portraying her in a film she did not want to happen.
Lily played the Baywatch star in the Disney+ drama Pam & Tommy last year.
But now she has said: "I said to Netflix, 'I'd love to invite Lily to the premiere of the movie.'
"I think it's hard to play somebody when you don't know the whole picture."
She added to Variety: "I've got nothing against Lily James. I think that she's a beautiful girl and she was just doing the job. But the idea of the whole thing happening was just really crushing for me."

Pamela, 55, hasn't watched a single minute of the series, but she could not escape the billboards promoting Lily in prosthetics.
"It just looked like a Halloween costume to me," she said.
In the new Netflix doc out on Tuesday she is shown reacting to the news Pam & Tommy was being made.
She says: "It really gives me nightmares. I didn't sleep last night at all. I never watched the tape. I’m not going to watch this.
"They should have had to have had my permission [for it]."
Pamela - who is about to release her new memoir Love Pamela - described the series as "shocking" but insists she has no negative feelings towards James.
James was cast to play Pamela in the series while Sebastian Stan was drafted to play her former husband, Tommy Lee.
