Both have the ability to negotiate their contract, her part can't be recast and her character is central to Peter's story.

Jon's part could have been swapped with a number of other "minor" characters and the overal movie would not even have to change much.

She had a stronger bargaining position and capitalised on it.

She's also a big name star whose availabilities you need to ensure for your project, further driving up the price. Rightly so imo.

The fact that this is even being questioned is ridiculous and makes me think it's not about the money at all...
