Apparently, Bryce Dallas Howard had to deal with a lot more than just getting paid significantly less than her co-star Chris Pratt behind the scenes of the Jurassic World franchise!
In a new interview with Metro on Thursday, Dallas opened up about her experience making the third film Jurassic World: Dominion, and spilled she actually was asked to lose weight for the movie. Seriously?! According to the 41-year-old, her body had become a topic of discussion amongst executives, and they soon urged her to change her “natural body” before filming began. She recalled:
Ugh. So incredibly frustrating.

However, Dallas said director Colin Trevorrow quickly came to her defense and shut down the requests:
She continued, expressing her joy at being able to perform her own stunts with her body:
This type of BS seriously needs to stop because, without a doubt, many other people in Hollywood have faced and will continue to face this pressure to shed weight in order to fit society’s standards. It’s just f**ked up…
As we mentioned before, this comes after Dallas revealed that the reports claiming she was paid $2 million less than Chris, who was making $10 million for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, were way off the mark. In fact, she told Insider last month that she was “paid so much less than the reports even said, so much less.” WTF. But Dallas shared that her castmate actually stepped in and even negotiated on her behalf when it came to other opportunities like spinoff video games and theme park rides:
She added:
Glad that Dallas had some people coming to her defense on this franchise. Reactions, Perezcious readers? Sound OFF in the comments below.
