Williams was paid $80 per diem for reshoots on “All the Money in the World,” while co-star Mark Wahlberg made $1.5 million.
Speaking at the Bari International Film Festival, the “Last Tango in Paris” director also expressed interest in working with Spacey on future projects.
The director’s latest film will go down in the Hollywood history books, but as Scott and his cast explain, they had no other choice.
He received $1.5 million, while she was paid only $1,000.
The “All The Money In The World” headlines are the start of the next big controversy Hollywood won’t be able to avoid.
Williams was paid less than 1% the amount that her co-star earned.
The Washington Post estimates that Wahlberg earned $2 million for the 10 days he spent re-filming his scenes in the Ridley Scott drama.
He doesn’t seem to regret it, however.
The movie would have been “dead” were it not for her.
Ridley Scott said he had been waiting for a challenge like this. “Within hours, I said, ‘Right, I’m going to recast this.'”
Plummer stepped in to replace disgraced actor Kevin Spacey and only had just over a week to reshoot the scenes.
