Citadel on Premiere Video: What Priyanka Chopra managed to achieve after 23 years of struggle!

In the big world of cinema, the topic of equal pay is still taboo. While we sometimes hear stories of actors handing over a portion of their paycheck to their partners so they’re on equal footing (like Chadwick Boseman in this movie), women are generally paid less than men.

Priyanka Chopra-Jonas, the Bollywood star who shares the poster of the series Citadel with Richard Madden, appeared on the sets. view That he managed to earn the same salary as his co-star. A first for him after a 23-year career. A victory he puts on the account of Jennifer Salk, who is the head of film and series production at Prime Video and who had the idea for this spy franchise.

“Interestingly, if the director had not been a woman, this transformation would not have been different. Or if there was a conversation, because it really wasn’t the subject for him. When the team said, “They’re both headliners, they should have the same salary,” he said that was understandable. End of conversation. My cynical side couldn’t believe it. I’ve been doing this for 23 years, I thought it wouldn’t happen.”

Citadel set a precedent in his acting career, as he later explained that he asked the same for every project he starred in with an actor. We’re thinking in particular of Love Again, a romantic comedy inspired by the songs of Celine Dion, where she particularly responds to Sam Heughan (Outlander). The film will hit our screens on June 7th.

Meanwhile, Prime Video subscribers can find Priyanka Chopra-Jonas every Friday at The Citadel.
