The actress filmed a scene in the 1986 film as a child

NEED TO KNOW

Melissa Joan Hart is sharing how much she earns in residuals from a film she never actually appeared in.

The actress, 50, filmed a scene in the 1986 film Crocodile Dundee, starring Paul Hogan and Linda Kozlowski, which was ultimately cut from the film.

In an interview with Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea”, Hart explained, “I was in Crocodile Dundee, and even though you will not see my face in it — I was cut out — I still get my 26 cents every few months or something.”

Hart added: “It dwindles, right? There’s a program to it all.”

As for what she does with the extra money, Hart joked to the outlet, “There’s actually a bar in LA called Residuals where you can take your residuals and put it toward your drinks.”

The actress was cast in the film when she was 10 years old, filming a part of a girl who skins her knee in Central Park before being aided by Crocodile Dundee, famously played by Paul Hogan.

But her part ultimately was cut from the film, which Hart said in a 2011 interview with SheKnows helped teach her about rejection.

“You find that you have a lot of rejection and you learn young that you have to let it go, and if you don’t have thick skin, you aren’t going to make it,” she told the outlet.

The actress went on to have a successful career nonetheless, playing Clarissa Darling in Clarissa Explains It All on Nickelodeon, which ran for five seasons from 1991 to 1994.

Once the show ended, she starred on Sabrina the Teenage Witch from 1996 to 2003.

While chatting with PEOPLE in February, Hart revealed the last time she watched one of her old shows was “a few years ago.”

“I’ve never watched the shows, really, ever, except Melissa and Joey, because I had to live-tweet them. So I did watch those,” she said at Steven Tyler’s 7th Annual Jam for Janie Grammy Awards Viewing Party. “But I recently watched, like a few years ago, when I had my podcast, I would watch an episode here and there for whoever was coming on, just to refresh my memory about certain things.”

Hart added: “Apparently, I was on Boy Meets World, and I didn’t even remember. I had to watch it. I don’t have memories of a lot of these things, so it’s fun to watch them back sometimes, but it’s also a little cringe.”
