'Crazy Rich Asians' Sequel Loses Screenwriter Over Pay Disparity

Screenwriter Adele Lim left a project due to a significant pay disparity with co-writer Peter Shreli. Lim's initial offer was $110,000, while Shreli's was between $800,000 and $1,000,000. Despite Shreli's greater experience in feature films, the disparity highlights ongoing gender and racial pay gaps in Hollywood. Lim declined a later offer and Shreli's proposal to share his fee. She is now working on a Disney project featuring Aquafina.
