Viola Davis is an acting great but says she doesn't get paid like one

2018-02-15 1

Viola Davis is one of the most revered and decorated actresses in Hollywood.

But the star of stage and screen says her paychecks don't necessarily reflect that.

I have a career that's probably comparable to Meryl Streep, Julianne Moore, Sigourney Weaver. They all came out of Yale. They came out of Julliard, They came out of NYU. They had the same path as me, and yet, I am nowhere near them -- not as far as money, not as far as job opportunities, no where close to it.

Davis is a two-time Tony Award winner, a Golden Globe, Emmy, and Oscar winner.
