Jurassic World star Bryce Dallas Howard claims she was paid “so much less” than Chris Pratt.
During an interview with Insider, the 41-year-old actress revealed that she was paid less than her co-star for the Jurassic World series despite his fight for equal pay.
“I was paid so much less than the reports even said, so much less,” said Howard. “When I started negotiating for [Jurassic World], it was 2014 and it was a different world, and I was at a great disadvantage. And, unfortunately, you have to sign up for three movies and so your deals are set.”
Howard and Pratt revitalized the Jurassic Park franchise in 2014 with Jurassic World. However, even back in 2018, Variety revealed that Howard was paid $2 million less than her co-star – taking home $8 million for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom as opposed to Pratt’s $10 million check.
Now, that figure is likely to have been a lot more.
Although Howard and Pratt continued the franchise with the recent Jurassic World Dominion it looks as though she continued to get the short end of the stick. Even though Pratt did try to help her negotiate better pay.
“What I will say is that Chris and I have discussed it, and whenever there was an opportunity to move the needle on stuff that hadn’t been already negotiated, like a game or a ride, he literally told me, ‘You guys don’t even have to do anything. I’m gonna do all the negotiating. We’re gonna be paid the same and you don’t have to think about this, Bryce.’”
“I love him so much for doing that,” Howard added. “I really do, because I’ve been paid more for those kinds of things than I ever was for the movie.”
It’s certainly a pretty honorable thing to do. But Howard shouldn’t really have to fight for equal pay in the first place. Unfortunately, Hollywood continues to struggle with an inherent pay gap between male and female costars.
Jurassic World Dominion also saw the return of Jurassic Park legends Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum, and Sam Neill. But many criticized the film for squandering this reunion in the wake of poor reviews.
