Sienna Miller is stylish in houndstooth shirt and red Gucci loafers in NYC

She revealed in an interview published Monday that the late Chadwick Boseman had donated money from his own salary to boost her pay on the movie 21 Bridges.

And on Tuesday, Sienna Miller was seen out and about in New York City’s West Village were she enjoyed lunch with a female friend.

The actress, 38, looked stylish in a houndstooth shirt tucked into cropped black jeans which she paired with bright red Gucci loafers.  

Miller wore her blonde hair tied back from her face and put on a face mask as she left the Italian eatery.

She accessorized with a couple of necklaces and several earrings. 

Action thriller 21 Bridges was released in November 2019 and was one of Boseman’s last roles before he succumbed to colon cancer on August 28 at age 43.

While it was a big budget movie, Miller explained to Empire magazine, the studio refused to meet her pay demand. 

That’s when the Black Panther star, who also served as a producer on the project, stepped in and supplemented her pay from his own.

Miller, who is mom to daughter Marlowe from her former relationship with actor Tom Sturridge, revealed she wasn’t prepared to take on the part in 21 Bridges unless she was properly compensated. 

‘This was a pretty big budget film, and I know that everybody understands about the pay disparity in Hollywood, but I asked for a number that the studio wouldn’t get to,’ she told Empire. ‘And because I was hesitant to go back to work and my daughter was starting school and it was an inconvenient time, I said: ‘I’ll do it if I’m compensated in the right way.”

She added: ‘And Chadwick ended up donating some of his salary to get me to the number that I had asked for. He said that that was what I deserved to be paid.’  

The actress described the gesture as ‘testament’ to Boseman’s character and said she couldn’t imagine any other man in Hollywood ‘behaving that graciously or respectfully’.
