The 71-year-old veteran actress played the lead role of Elise Elliot Atchison in the movie, which followed three vengeful ex-wives played by Hawan, Bette Midler and Diane Keaton, reported Femalefirst.
"They (makers) were afraid of women of a certain age, when they came to do the sequel they wanted to pay us exactly the same amount. It was such an insult.
"That's the kind of stuff I look at and I go 'you know what, I'm taking this other movie'. I got paid very little for it and that movie was 'Banger Sister' and I love that movie. She was a great character. It wasn't about the money it was about respect. It was about being treated that way which was awful. Unheard of!" she says.
