Rose McGowan demanded $5 million to shave her eyebrows
The 37-year-old actress was asked by producers to remove her brows and shave back her hairline to play evil sorceress Marique in the new movie but she insisted she wouldn`t do it unless the price was right.
She said: "The studio asked if I would shave my eyebrows and my hairline back to here, and I thought, `Sure, if you give me $5 million.` "
However, the studio turned down her request, forcing the actress to spend hours at a time in the make-up chair getting ready for the role, which included slicking back her hair and wearing a prosthetic piece that went over her highbrows and back to the middle of her head.
She told `Access Hollywood`: "I sat from about two in the morning till around 7.30 in the morning."
Rose - who was in a car crash in 2007 - has also revealed she is having to turn down roles because of an arm injury which could be left irreparably damaged if she hurts the limb again.
She said: "I had a really severe injury which left me basically paralyzed in the right arm.
"I had three surgeries on it and I was told if I hurt myself again the doctors won`t be able to do anything more for me. With things like the remake of `Red Sonja` which I was due to do, I would be using my arms a lot so I can`t do it. I used to be able to lift 20lbs. Now I can only lift 3lbs."
