This story should be trending because if we continue to let this happen, studios will continue to do it.
Both writers deserve equal pay because they are CO-WRITERS. I like Chiarelli but Lim provided authenticity from her perspective as an Asian woman that enriched the script.
Adele Lim will no longer co-write the ‘CRAZY RICH ASIANS’ sequel due to a massive pay parity issue. Warner Bros offered $800,000-$1M to co-writer Pete Chiarelli however Adele Lim was only offered $110,000+. (Source: hollywoodreporter.com/news/crazy-ric…)
This weekend is the first in almost 2 years that 4 films have grossed over $20M
1️⃣ - Sinners ($45M)
2️⃣ - Revenge of the Sith ($25M)
3️⃣ - The Accountant 2 ($24.5M)
4️⃣ - Minecraft ($22.7M)
I’m not gonna have sour grapes over some random getting paid more than us on Twitter lol
But… it’s so obviously rigged to certain creators when her metrics are like 1% of ours and she’s getting paid literally 1000% more than DF got paid in that 2 week span.
take a good look at this photo, you’re gonna be seeing it on every Odyssey-related post on DiscussingFilm for the rest of 2025 until they release a trailer with new images.
This is horrendously stupid, you’ve released 2 trailers for this film and a major magazine cover drops tomorrow.
That is already an insane amount of marketing invested in an unnecessary delay if you just paid people fairly!!
‘DUNE 2’ has been delayed to March 14, 2024 as studios continue to refuse to pay actors & writers fairly.
See what other movies just got delayed: bit.ly/Dates2023
