Back in November, Sia told The Hollywood Reporter print edition that she wrote the script to the film nearly eight years ago, but didn't tell anyone about it until now.
She said, "I was too embarrassed to tell anyone I wanted to make a movie because I thought it would be seen as a vanity project because I was a singer. And then last year, after I made the 'Chandelier' video, I realized that I was pretty good at directing, so I felt a little bit braver."
So far, Ziegler's dance instructor Abby Lee Miller hasn't made any comments about her star dancer leaving her crew.
