Actor Mark Wahlberg refused to approve the casting of
Christopher Plummer as a replacement for disgraced actor Kevin Spacey in "All
the Money in the World" until he was paid over $1 million.
Wahlberg's
lawyer vetoed Plummer's casting in a letter to the film's financiers, saying the
actor would only agree if he were paid the extra money.
"What he said
was, ‘I will not approve Christopher Plummer unless you pay me'," usatoday.com
quoted a source as saying.
Earlier this week, there were reports that
Wahlberg made $1.5 million for extensive reshoots on the film, while his co-star
Michelle Williams received only $80 a day.
