Sienna Miller has criticised the arts industry for pay inequality.
The actress admitted to pulling out of a play because the pay gap between herself and her male co-star was so significant that she wanted to take a stand against the inequality women continue to face.
She told Marie Claire: "The producer wouldn't pay equally. He wouldn't pay me within a million miles of what the male actor was being paid.
"And women always have to do more publicity than the men. The only way is to make a stand.
"We are going to have to make sacrifices to make change. I want to turn up and feel dignified."
Miller can next be seen alongside American Sniper co-star Bradley Cooper in chef drama Burnt.

Burnt will hit cinemas on October 23 in the US and November 6 in the UK.
