There’s also an interesting email exchange between Pascal and Brian Helgeland, screenwriter of the planned Cleopatra biopic, with Pascal suggesting that Helgeland dump Angelina Jolie in favor of Lawrence—an idea Helgeland says he’s given some thought to.

I’ve seen her act.I’m kind of surprised that she gets paid at all.

Now, that's not true...she is actually a darn good actress...

She was outstanding in "American Hustle"

"What surprised me most about the Sony emails was the infantile, juvenile nature of the emails."

And they had the nerve to call Jolie a spoiled brat. They sound like spoiled brats themselves.

It was back-end money.

All the male leads in “American Hustle” got 9%; Amy Adams and Jennifer received 7%.

Marilyn Monroe made a lot of her money on her back end, so they say. It was an asset...:)

Who cares? She’s still radically overpaid. The guy who wrote it makes 3% of what she does.
