Trouble in paradise

THE latest limited series by HBO, The White Lotus, focuses on a group of VIP guests who travel to a luxurious Hawaiian resort, and the chaotic week that ensues for both them and the staff.

Written and directed by Mike White, the six-episode The White Lotus offers a satirical look at the issues of privilege and identity, all set against the gorgeous backdrop of the Hawaiian island of Maui, and boasts a talented ensemble cast that includes Connie Britten, Steve Zahn, Jennifer Coolidge and Molly Shannon.

Alexandra Daddario plays Rachel, a newlywed on her honeymoon at the resort with her husband Shane (played by Jake Lacy), whose fairytale romance takes a dark turn, leaving her questioning whether this is really the life that she wants.

Daddario shared her thoughts about working on the show during a recent video conference interview with regional media, including theSun.

She explained that while she tries to bring a little bit of herself into each role, she found that playing the conflicted Rachel made her realise “how lost I would feel if I didn’t have something I really loved that I was pursuing with great passion”.
