"Muck around" means exactly the same as "mess around" (To create disorder pointlessly by untidiness or inappropriate behaviour. To do something which has no particular merit).

In the context where you place the expression, it means that the film director does not want the script, the action, or the sets which he has chosen to be altered in anyway. He wants his decisions to be respected and carried out precisely as he says.
