Hollywood pay gap: Mark Wahlberg vs. Michelle Williams
Hollywood pay gap: Mark Wahlberg was paid $1.5 million for reshooting his scenes in 'All the Money in the World' while Michelle Williams was paid less than $1,000.
Mark Wahlberg didn't get all the money in the world, but he got a lot. And his co-star Michelle Williams got a lot less.
Wahlberg received $1.5 million for reshooting his scenes in “All the Money in the World,” the film about the Getty kidnapping case, while Williams received less than $1,000, a report said Tuesday.
Three people not authorized to speak publicly about the matter told USA Today that Williams was being paid an $80 per diem, which amounted to less than 1 percent of her male co-star's pay.
The reshoot -- prompted by the removal of Kevin Spacey from the film folowing sexual misconduct allegations -- cost a total of $10 million, but director Ridley Scott told the newspaper in December that “everyone did it for nothing.”

"All the Money in the World," starring Mark Wahlberg and Michelle Williams, was released on December 25, 2017.
In reality, Wahlberg’s team negotiated a hefty fee, the paper reported, while Williams was kept in the dark.
Wahlberg and Williams are both represented by the same agency, William Morris Endeavor, which takes an average of 10 percent of their salaries. But Wahlberg’s team has a reputation in Hollywood for “driving a tough bargain,” the Washington Post reported.
On the contrary, Williams previously told USA Today that when Scott’s team requested her reshoot time, she said she would be “whenever” and “wherever” they needed her.
“And they could have my salary, they could have my holiday, whatever they wanted,” Williams said. “Because I appreciated so much that they were making this massive effort.”
The film was being hailed as a triumph -- until news of the pay gap got out.
At Sunday's Golden Globe awards, actors and actresses wore all black in solidarity with the Times Up Initiative in Hollywood, which advocates for gender equality and victims of sexual harassment.
