The Crown's Claire Foy 'very upset' after learning Matt Smith was paid more than her
British actress Claire Foy said she was “very upset” after discovering she was paid less than co-star Matt Smith on The Crown but subsequently it has had an “amazing impact”.
The actress, whose latest film Women Talking has been nominated for best picture at the Oscars, said she had not “allowed” herself to get angry about the gender pay gap row at the time. The Crown controversy came shortly after US actress Michelle Williams made headlines when it was disclosed that actor Mark Wahlberg earned 1.5 million dollars to refilm portions of All The Money In The World to erase actor Kevin Spacey, while Williams reportedly received less than 1,000 dollars .
“I mean, it’s so hard. I don’t think I should be honest about certain things about it, because I don’t think it would be helpful. It would add more fuel to it. We’re still talking about this, however many years down the line.
