Amanda Seyfried is speaking up about the wage gap.
In an interview with the Sunday Times, the Ted 2 star revealed that she discovered she was being paid much, much less than a male costar on one of her past films.
"A few years ago, on one of my big-budget films, I found I was being paid 10% of what my male costar was getting," she said. "And we were pretty even in status."
The actress has been starring in big films for quite a while, so let the guessing games begin for which film and costar she's referencing.

It could be anything, from Dear John (co-starring Channing Tatum) to Les Miserables, where she mostly acted opposite Eddie Redmayne. Though he's an Oscar winner now, it's safe to say Seyfried was probably the bigger star of the two back in 2012.
"I think people think that just because I’m easygoing and game to do things, I’ll just take as little as they offer," she said in the interview. "It’s not about how much you get, it’s about how fair it is."
She also added that women should be "willing to walk away from something" if they're not getting equal pay.
Her words echo a similar sentiment from Amy Pascal, the embroiled former Sony exec who came under fire when a major hack revealed that female stars were getting paid less than male stars on certain Sony films.
"The truth is that what women have to do is not work for less money," Pascal said in one of her first interviews after the scandal. "They have to walk away. People shouldn't be so grateful for jobs."
Seyfried isn't the only big star who's faced this pervasive issue. Earlier this year, Charlize Theron had to renegotiate her salary for the Snow White and the Huntsman sequel when the Sony leak revealed she was being paid much less than her male costars. After talks, Theron got a reported $10 million bump.
Jennifer Lawrence also inked a rather impressive deal for the upcoming film Passengers, netting a cool $20 million salary, much higher than co-star Chris Pratt -- who'll be making $12 million.
