“There are times in the past, making a movie when I’ve been told that I’m hindering the process by bringing up an opinion or an idea,” she said.
She admits that there have been times when she has spoken up about certain scenes or lines and being told to just “say it, if it doesn’t work we’ll cut it out.” However, even when the line doesn’t work, it isn’t cut out. What’s more, there have been instances when she has improved a line, or told a joke that has worked well in the scene, only to have it taken from her.
“I hesitate to make it about being a woman, but there have been times when I’ve improvised, they’ve laughed at my joke and then given it to my male co-star,” she said.
Sadly, Stone went off the record to elaborate on her stolen jokes, but either way, that’s just not cool.
