Actress Robin Wright, who is popularly known for her role as First Lady Claire Underwood in the Netflix political drama House Of Cards, has opened up about gender pay gap with co-star Kevin Spacey as she posed topless for the photoshoot of weekly digital magazine, The Edit.

In another black and white image, the Texas-born beauty donned a full sleeve lace top while sitting on the floor leaning towards a plain cloth curtain. She kept her hair tied at the back with a few locks falling from both sides of her face.

Wright also shared some shocking details about the money she receives for her House of cards role saying her salary was a lot less compared to co-star Spacey.

"I was told that I was getting equal pay and I believed them, and I found out recently that it's not true... so that's something to investigate. Claire and Francis are equivalent as far as their power, their union and the plot. I may not have as many scenes or words as Francis, but Claire doesn't need to verbalise as much," the actress continued.

Explaining the difference between both the characters, Wright said (via Mail Online), "Francis is an orator, a poet, a demonstrator. Claire is an [ego] that sits in the back and directs him, but they are partners on the same plane."

While the blonde beauty was reportedly getting $500,000 per episode before the premiere of the season in 2014, Kevin made an average of $420,000 per episode during the period between 2014 and 2015, according to The Huffington Post.

Meanwhile, Wright also opened up about how motherhood affected her acting career and said, "If you don't play the game your notoriety doesn't go up and then people don't want to hire you. And it was twofold because I was raising my kids, but I was also not getting parts."

However, the mother of two revealed that she does not regret taking a break in her career mainly because she got a chance to spent time with her children. "As a mother, I would never take that [decision] back, because I loved being there with my babies. But I knew I had missed out," she said.
