Actress Jennifer Lawrence clarified that she "wasn't pregnant" during that moment in the filming of "Don't Look Up" when she decided to smoke marijuana.
Jennifer Lawrence confessed at a press conference in Los Angeles (USA) that she had taken drugs to shoot a scene from her latest film, "Don't look up" ("Don't Look Up"), in which she co-stars with Leonardo DiCaprio , who earned 4.45 million euros more than her.
In the film, directed by Adam McKay, Lawrence and DiCaprio play two astronomers who travel across the United States to warn the population that a meteorite is falling towards Earth.
In a scene from the film, Jennifer Lawrence's character, after seeing the meteorite and learning of its danger, smokes a joint to relax. This interpretation is real, since the actress thought it would be more credible and original to also shoot under the influence of drugs, according to the portal Yahoo! movies.
The director explained that the actress asked permission to smoke marijuana in that scene, in which she appears with Meryl Streep and makes a monologue for several minutes, and McKay answered yes.
The Oscar-winning actress for "The good side of things" ("Silver Linings Playbook"), clarified that when she took drugs on the set "she was not pregnant at the time" to avoid possible confusion, since just two months ago she announced who is expecting her first child with Cooke Maroney, whom she married in 2019.
Jennifer Lawrence's salary in "Don't look up"
In another interview, with Vanity Fair magazine, Jennifer Lawrence spoke about her salary in "Don't look up" ("Don't Look Up") and assured that she received 4.45 million euros (almost 5 million dollars) less than DiCaprio despite her being the one who appears first in the credits.
However, Lawrence assured that the actor attracts more viewers than her and that she is very happy with her contract, although she also acknowledged that on many occasions it is "extremely uncomfortable to ask about equal pay."
“And if you question something because it seems unequal, they tell you that it is not a gender disparity, but they are not able to explain to you what exactly it is,” she said.
The magazine points out that, according to a recent Variety report, Jennifer Lawrence was paid $25 million (€22.2 million) for the film, while DiCaprio received $30 million (26.65), that is, a 25 % plus.
