Gerwig, McKinnon other celebs recall most broke they've been
NEW YORK (AP) — Clearly not every actor suffered through lean times on their way up, but origin stories are full of tight-money moments nevertheless.
Patrick Wilson said recently on the red carpet that he once scraped for change at the Lincoln Tunnel. Greta Gerwig said her bank account was nearly drained when she drove past a Los Angeles movie theater with her face on the marquee.
Rosamund Pike and Kate McKinnon can relate.
"It was lentils every day. Lentils are a gorgeous staple. I still eat a lot of lentils actually," said McKinnon, a "Saturday Night Live" cast member who voiced Lupe in "Ferdinand."
Pike, in "Hostiles" with Christian Bale, remembered a particularly joyful moment, money wise.
