“I could get in trouble for saying that. It depends on who’s looking though. I’m in the entertainment industry,” she said during her conversation with Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke at the kickoff of the South by Southwest Film Festival. I’ve been working for 22 years, and I’ve done over 70 features and two TV shows. But when I worked on Citadel, it was the first time in my career that I got equal pay.”

Further, the actress said, “I am laughing about this because it is a reason to laugh. I get very low salary even when investment and work are equal. But the ease with which Amazon Studios said, ‘This is the one whose You’re entitled, you’re co-head, that’s fair,’ and I was like, ‘You’re right, that’s fair.’ And I wonder if it’s because there are so few female decision-makers in Hollywood? Would it be a different conversation if no woman had made that decision? Because those are not conversations that happen very easily.
