The show's fourth season will premiere in June this year."I definitely get less money than a male in my situation would. Certainly when I signed up to that project, I would have got paid less. Then (the producers) might argue, 'Well, he's already done a major American TV show so he's already got a level.' But even after a Golden Globe I'm not going to be on parity." Wilson said.Wilson said she never spoke about the issue with her co-star as she found it hard to talk about it but believes that there should be an "open discussion"."It's quite hard to bring that up in a way. But it needs to be an open discussion and men need to help us out," Wilson said. "I don't want more money, I just want equal money. Which means men have to take less," Wilson said.
