Theo James is getting actual about that nude scene throughout the brand new season of The White Lotus.
In the very first episode of season two, Theo’s character Cameron Babcock strips down to vary right into a swimsuit within the background of Harper Spiller’s lodge room.
The complete factor leaves little or no to the creativeness — however Theo says it really wasn’t him.
Instead, the present’s crew had Theo use a prosthetic, which he revealed throughout an interview on The Tonight Show.
“So, you go into these scenes, and you have a conversation with the director, and the producers, and they go, ‘Okay, for this, we’re gonna use a prosthetic,'” Theo defined. “And you say, ‘Okay, that sounds good.'”
When it got here time to get fitted for his prosthetic member, he says he advised make-up head Rebecca Hickey to maintain issues fundamental.
“I said, ‘Honestly, I just wanted it not to be distracting. It needs to be ‘Regular Joe,'” Theo shared. “Because the scene, you know, it’s not about the pee pee, it’s about power play and sex.”
He continued, “It’s about whether he did it deliberately or whether it was an accident and what that means. She says, ‘I got you. Yeah, I got you. Regular Joe.'”
But when Theo acquired to set, issues ended up being quite a bit larger than he anticipated.
“She’s got like a hammer. I mean, it’s bigger than that. It’s like she stole it off a donkey in the field! The thing is ginormous,” Theo mentioned.
He says that when he and the director noticed it, they jokingly referred to as their companions to apologize if the prosthetic really represented what folks thought was “average.”
“It was nine inches flaccid and about four inches wide! We were like, ‘What the hell is that?'” Theo concluded.
