VIDEO : Amanda Seyfried Was Once Paid Only 10 Percent of Her Male Co-Star's Salary

Jennifer Lawrence is the odd woman out in Hollywood.
The Oscar-winning actress will earn a reported $20 million for her role in Passengers, while the sci-fi movie's male lead, Chris Pratt, will earn only a fraction of what Lawrence will make. As Amanda Seyfried tells The Sunday Times, it's rare for a woman to be paid more than (or the same as) her famous male counterpart.
"A few years ago, on one of my big-budget films, I found I was being paid 10 percent of what my male co-star was getting," the 29-year-old actress says without identifying the actor or film. "And we were pretty even in status."
Seyfried, whose major film credits include Mean Girls, Mamma Mia!, Dear John, In Time, Les Misérables, The Big Wedding, Lovelace, A Million Ways to Die in the West, Ted 2 and Pan, adds that it's important for every actress to fight for equal pay and decide for herself if she's "willing to walk away from something."
