Olivia Colman has criticised gender pay disparity in the film industry and said she would be paid more if she was a man, arguing that it is rooted in an outdated idea that male actors draw in the audience.
Speaking about her latest movie, Wicked Little Letters, the Oscar-winning actor said that gender limits her earning potential. “Research suggests that [women have] always been big box office draws,” she told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour programme.
