Emma Stone's Male Co-Stars Have Taken Pay Cuts So She Could Get an Equal Salary

Emma Stone and Andrea Riseborough look stunning in black and white for the new cover of Out magazine.

Here’s what the Battle of the Sexes co-stars had to share with the mag:

Emma on pay disparities in Hollywood: “In my career so far, I’ve needed my male co-stars to take a pay cut so that I may have parity with them. And that’s something they do for me because they feel it’s what’s right and fair, so that’s something that’s also not discussed, necessarily�”that our getting equal pay is going to require people to selflessly say, ‘That’s what’s fair.’”

Andrea on the current battle of the sexes: “Sometimes I feel like we have got a long way to go. Women are seriously, highly-sexualized. Just look at the Baywatch posters. We have to be real about the fact that we’re in 2017 and everyone’s so excited that we put out a superhero movie starring a woman.”

Emma on playing tennis with Billie Jean King: “She’s such a coach and she knows sports psychology, and she instantly reduced it to playing catch, so I got to feel like a golden retriever running after a ball, and just making sure the ball was in front of my face. What was incredible is that she found my strengths and she played to those. She found out instantly that I like to dance and I could move my feet, and that’s was our jumping off point.”
