- Robin Wright, who played Claire Underwood in Netflix's 'House of Cards,' claimed she didn't receive equal pay to co-star Kevin Spacey because she hadn't won an Oscar.
- Wright said executives told her they couldn't pay her the same as an actor without an Academy Award, offering her an executive producer role and directing opportunities instead.
- Wright questioned why pay should be tied to winning an Oscar, noting that this protocol has been in place for years.
- Kevin Spacey, who has faced sexual misconduct allegations, has won two Oscars, while Wright has never been nominated despite starring in several acclaimed films.
- Wright is grateful to the 'House of Cards' team for allowing her to direct episodes, which led to further directing opportunities in shows like 'Ozark' and 'Tell Me Lies.'
