Samuel L. Jackson is glad to be pals again with frequent collaborator Spike Lee.The Marvel actor, 74, began feuding with the Oscar-winning filmmaker, 66, back in 1992 after they had a fight over Jackson’s salary for the epic “Malcolm X.”The “Pulp Fiction” star was actually set to star as Baines — a character that Albert Hall was later cast in — for Lee’s drama about the civil rights activist.Jackson got candid about how his dispute with the “BlacKkKlansman” director came about in a recent chat with Vulture.“I actually read with most of the people who auditioned for ‘Malcolm X.’ But it was still down to that Spike Lee scale-plus-10 salary thing,” Jackson said, referring to the system created by the Screen Actors Guild that allows 10% of an actor’s paycheck to go to their agent.

The two already had a successful working relationship with each other, as Jackson had starred in Lee’s previous flicks, “Jungle Fever,” “School Daze” and “Do the Right Thing.”“I used to call my agent every day to see if I had any auditions, callbacks, whatever.
And my line to her every day was, ‘Hollywood call?’ She was like, ‘No, sir.’ So one day I called, she said, ‘As a matter of fact, yeah, they did. You just won an award at the Cannes Film Festival.’ And I’m, like, ‘What? For what?'” the Washington D.C.
