oh lol, I did not know that.. then ya, its odd they would have asked for Marky Mark to be paid and not Williams.. unless their cut from Mark's pay is higher and worth more of their time and effort... lol. 

 

ok this is back to a weird story line.

Id think Williams was paid pretty handsomely for the role too.  She's an acclaimed actor.  I think it was Mark not wanting to donate his time.  And the narrative that "all the actors came together to quickly do these reshoots and donated their time to make sure we could do it successfully" is something the studio liked.  Mark did not.  His right to get paid.  But if they all kept that from Michelle and made her think they were all donating, thats not cool. 

Im biased because I LOVE Michelle Williams, BTW.  lol

Here's another article on it.  I dont think its so much that THIS is a pay disparity (we'd need to know what both were paid for the entire role, assuming they were comparable rules - I believe Williams was the top billed actor but Im not sure).

But it will trigger talk about the very real issue of pay disparity:

Quote

In 2017, as Hollywood's women bravely spoke out against sexual harassment, the pay gap between female and male actors did not seem to be closing. According to Forbes' list of top-paid actors, Wahlberg -- the highest-paid man in the biz -- made $42 million more than the top-paid actress, Emma Stone.

To achieve pay equity, women in Hollywood need to band together. Right now, it's hard for any one female actor to insist on being paid the same as her male co-stars. If she demands a big salary, she runs the risk of losing the role to a woman who will work for less.
But if all women in Hollywood signed a public pledge that they won't accept salaries that aren't equivalent to that of men at the same levels on the same productions, then filmmakers would be forced to pay women equitably. After all, almost every production has female characters.
 
Of course, another problem is ensuring that filmmakers are honest during such negotiations and don't later cut better backroom deals with male stars. For example, Scott told USA Today back in December that all the actors re-shooting "All the Money in the World" were working "for nothing." Now, it appears that wasn't true, or it subsequently changed.

 

That Crocodile Dundee sequel you did not want but dying to see cause it's freaking Danny McBride!

 

I love the Dundee trilogy....I'm concerned they're going to mock it and ruin it's legacy. I enjoy Danny McBride doing his thing, but I dunno about this....

Loved the first one, second one was half decent, never bothered with the third. McBride's age and name don't match with the son they had in the movies so sounds like another Roseanning.

the 3rd Dundee totally holds up...it's fun. This......I have concerns with.....

There's no way that's real right?

I am hoping it's like some early April Fool's thing, but I actually read a quote from Paul Hogan yesterday that said he's been looking at resurrecting the franchise for a new generation, and he's excited to introduce a new project. Apparently the deal is, the old man is lost somewhere in the outback, and he's got an illegitimate son in New York who is absolutely nothing like him, but is determined to come and save his dad.....the whole thing is beyond ridiculous. It sounds like "Your Highness" meets "Crocodile Dundee"...

Great Tim Horton's Ghost!

I think if one has a healthy self image of our country- one should be fine.

 

I love how they played off this:

I'm super patriotic to a fault and I love it.... This'll be a Paul Gross Appreance away from being a full in CanCon production. 

Danny McBride is ok in small doses.  The man can't hold his own film though.

Because it's comedy and meant to be funny.

I wasn't a huge fan of Super Troopers 1 (...it's since grown on me a bit...) but I absolutely LOVE the idea of this second one being a quasi Canadian production...

Comedy is subjective, like many other things in life.
