Joan Collins slammed her late "Dynasty" co-star John Forsythe, calling him a "misogynistic p—k" in a new interview.

Collins — who famously played the ex-wife of Forsythe’s character on the ’80s soap opera — sniffed that the actor always had to be "front and center," unwilling to share the limelight.

Collins says that she was making $15,000 an episode when she joined the series while Forsythe — who died in 2010 at age 92 — was earning "like 25 or $30,000."

Eventually, Collins worked her way up to $120,000 an episode but noted that "came with a caveat that they’d only put me in half the episodes as [they] couldn’t afford to pay me."

The British-born star also revealed the advice she received from Marilyn Monroe when she first moved to Hollywood.

"Beware of the wolves in Hollywood, honey, because if they don’t get what they want, they will cancel your contract," Monroe allegedly told her.
