Headline: Cate Blanchett claims 'no one got paid anything' for The Lord of the Rings

Caption: Although the Peter Jackson trilogy was one of the highest-grossing movie series of all time, Blanchett has laughed off rumours of a substantial salary for her appearance as royal elf Galadriel. During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live host Andy Cohen asked Blanchett which film had earned her the biggest pay check, before he guessed it was The Lord of the Rings. "Are you kidding me?" Blanchett replied. "No, no one got paid anything to do that movie.". Cohen then asked if she "got a piece of the backend", to which Blanchett answered, "No! That was way before any of that. No, nothing."
