The biopic of Amy Winehouse's life is already drawing criticism despite it is still in the development phase.
New images from the impending biography have surfaced, showing an unhappy period in the singer's life.
Actor Jack O'Connell, who plays Amy Fielder-husband Civil's in the film "Back to Black," may be seen being led away by police while wearing handcuffs in production photos.
Marisa Abela, the award-winning singer, was portrayed by an actress who appeared to be very upset.
During last week's filming of stressful scenes outside the troubled star's old home in Camden, North London, Marisa is alleged to have yelled and begged the police not to take her husband away.
The sequence is thought to be based on Blake's real-life arrest in 2007, when he was taken into custody while wearing handcuffs for a $220,000 trial-fixing scheme.
The images, which have Marisa wearing the singer's trademark hairdo and leopard print outfit, have provoked outrage on social media and among her followers.
One user on Twitter referred to the images of Marissa portraying Amy and appearing upset as "revolting."
Another person said that the real Amy was "amazing," and they were confident that many fans wouldn't see "this crap" when movie was released in theaters.
A third Twitter user expressed their disgust, saying, "I'm so sick of biopics & trauma-porn. Stop exploiting DEAD women. Let Amy Winehouse rest in peace !!"

Amy Winehouse's husband was sentenced to jail in 2008 after admitting to causing great bodily injury and tampering with justice. He attempted to assault a bartender before planning to pay him with $220,000 so that he would not testify.
Amy and Blake were married in 2007 but divorced in 2009.
However, Amy Winehouse's father recently stated that their entire family is thrilled about the impending film that would "relive her genius," despite the fact that certain admirers of the "Rehab" hitmaker are certain not to watch the biopic and to trash on it.
The movie, which was filmed in Soho in the heart of London, will examine Amy's spectacular career and untimely death in 2011 at the age of just 27.
Mitch, her dad, revealed that their family blessed the movie.
In an interview with The Mirror, he said, "It's something we're excited about as a family because it will concentrate on Amy's talent. And when all is said and done, that's what we are left with."
Mitch said, "It will be amazing for fans to relive her genius and introduce her music to a whole new generation."
"Amy loved championing artists so she would have been so excited to see what Marisa will bring to the role and would be very supportive of her."
Amy Winehouse's career was cut short after dying of alcohol intoxication. She is known to have struggled with substance abuse and addiction on July 23, 2011.
