Shocking Revelations from Jason Isaacs!
In a jaw-dropping interview with Vulture, Jason Isaacs, best known for his role in 'The White Lotus', opened up about the dark side of Hollywood, revealing that one of his co-stars—an unnamed global icon—was the absolute worst bully he had ever encountered.
Behind the Scenes Drama Unveiled
Isaacs recalled the star pushing him out of a shot, saying, "Oh Jesus. Did worse than that." He described a manipulative acting style, where this A-lister would perform entirely differently off-camera compared to their on-screen persona. "Yeah, it sucked. I’d never seen anything like it," he lamented. This shocking confession followed a time when Isaacs would have revered the actor's talent.
A Star-Studded Career with Dark Encounters
At 62, Isaacs has shared the screen with Hollywood heavyweights in films like 'Armageddon' and 'The Patriot', but he noted that not all experiences were positive. Many of his co-stars, he said, have been "bonkers"—leaving him to grapple with what constitutes bad behavior on set.
Judging Character in a Mad World
He emphasized that his judgments primarily stem from seeing selfishness, cruelty, and outright bullying. Isaacs drew attention to the reality of actors not showing up, sneaking off early, or indulging in drugs. "I come across all that stuff," he shared, shedding light on the less glamorous side of showbiz.
Secrets of the Industry
Despite his candidness, Isaacs refrained from naming names, insisting that there is little value in exposing the truth about his colleagues, an act he described as merely 'masochism and sabotage.' He remained firm in his belief that, "Acting is all about secrets."
Salary Disparities and Humble Gratitude
In a surprising turn, Isaacs touched on the financial aspect of his career, revealing that, during Season 3 of 'The White Lotus', he and his castmates earned a mere 40,000 dollars per episode—far lower than expected for major TV roles. "Generally actors don’t talk about pay in public because it upsets the public," he explained, yet acknowledged that they would have jumped at the chance to participate in the show even for free.
As he put it, "We probably would have given a body part." This intriguing mix of revelations showcases a complex industry, where talent often wrestles with the shadows of fame.
