Ellen Pompeo star of the “Grey’s Anatomy” medical series, which turned 20 in the air, criticized the treatment given by streaming services to actors. The actress started to make sporadic appearances in production, where she follows as a narrator and executive producer and lamented the lack of transparency and professional appreciation In the display model, which has been dominating the entertainment industry.
In an interview with Variety, the artist explained that the way residual payments are structured on platforms is one of the main reasons for her to continue in the series.
“They have the ability to use my voice, my image, my appearance, 47 billion minutes a year and not paying a penny would not be very nice to me,” he said.
“People have not watched for the last 10 years more than the first 10. Most people watch the first 10 years, and There are no residual payment structures for any of these writers, actors, directors . For me, it’s really Trash and truly unfair . So being in the series a little and still getting at least making money that they profit at our expense is more acceptable to me. That’s why I continue to be honest. ”
Regarding “Grey’s Anatomy itself,” Ellen admitted that she positions himself a lot about the creative direction of the series and her character, Meredith Gray. She disagreed with a recent plot in which Meredith discovers that a doctor, played by Lena Waithe, lied about her wife’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis to ensure she was still eligible to a liver transplant that would save her life.
Meredith ended up telling the truth to the medical advice, while Ellen thought her character should continue to “face the system,” as she has done over the last 20 years.
“I think, in the end, meg [Marinis]which is the showrunner, [a diretora Debbie Allen] and Shonda Rhimes [criadora da série] All recognize that all my frankness about the creative part of the series comes from a place of deep care with the program. I see my job as trying to keep the Leonda Rhimes legacy as solid as possible. And the moment you stop caring, it starts to pretend or get lazy, we are not really doing that for what we were paid to do. ”
Ellen also acknowledges that the series will continue even if she completely moves away. “It’s not like, if I came out of the series, they would end. The series is still extremely successful.”
