Los Angeles, Sep 29 (TIWN) Actress Sienna Miller has recalled how the late Chadwick Boseman graciously gave up a part of his salary so she could get paid the remuneration she demanded when they worked together on a project last year.

Boseman, who passed away last month following a private, four-year-long battle with colon cancer, was also one of producers on the 2019 cop thriller alongside his Marvel collaborators Anthony and Joe Russo.  Miller said the Black Panther star was also instrumental in her joining the Brian Kirk directorial, in which he played the lead character of detective Andre Davis.  "This was a pretty big-budget film, and I know that everybody understands about the pay disparity in Hollywood, but I asked for a number that the studio wouldn't get to," Miller recounted in an interview with Empire magazine, whose new issue is dedicated to the late actor's life on- and offscreen.  "And because I was hesitant to go back to work and my daughter was starting school and it was an inconvenient time, I said, ''I'll do it if I'm compensated in the right way.'' And Chadwick ended up donating some of his salary to get me to the number that I had asked for. He said that that was what I deserved to be paid," she added.
