Actress Aimee Lou Wood shares her experience filming in Thailand for the latest season of 'The White Lotus'. She describes the breathtaking location, the challenges of living on set, and the blurring lines between her character Chelsea and herself.
Aimee Lou Wood took a leap into the unknown by relocating to Thailand for a hefty seven months to shoot the latest season of The White Lotus. The star, known for her role in Sex Education, confessed that her usual jaunts don't go beyond the UK's West Country; nevertheless, the chance to join the cast of the popular dark comedy series was irresistible.
Aimee was a massive fan of the first two series of the show before she was cast as British holidaymaker Chelsea in the third season of The White Lotus. "I am an absolute super fan," she chuckles. "I was always pondering where I could slot into the White Lotus world because I wanted to be part of it.
The cast set up home at the Four Seasons hotel, which served as the White Lotus, living at the filming location for half of last year. And according to Aimee, it made for a peculiar experience. However, there are drawbacks. "The flip side of the coin is there is a bit of a loss of self," she confesses. "At one point, I was having my hair done and the stylist asked halfway through, 'Am I chatting to Aimee or Chelsea?' and I said, 'I don't even know any more.' You become a White Lotus guest – because you are living there – so the lines get so blurred.
