Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle Editor If only Theo James were not joking. I asked “The White Lotus” star what he thinks about all the fan chatter hoping that he and Will Sharpe’s characters were going to hook up during Season 2 of Mike White’s hit HBO show. “They cut the sex scene,” James deadpanned on the red carpet at the SAG Awards, eliciting a big laugh from his TV wife Meghann Fahy. “It began in a kind of romantic way but then it gets very carnal, but Mike decided to cut it. No, I’m joking! There was no sex scene.” James and Fahy also revealed that they didn’t have to do a chemistry read together before they were cast. “We didn’t do any table reads either, which I loved,” Fahy said.

The 2023 SAG Awards were utterly dominated by “Everything Everywhere All At Once.” It was such a media sweep that many viewers probably closed their YouTube window completely forgetting “The White Lotus” won Outstanding Cast for a Drama Series and that Jennifer Coolidge took the Female Actress in a Drama Series award over fellow HBO star and two-time Emmy Award winner, Zendaya. Throw in Brendan Fraser taking Male Actor in A Motion Picture and it was simply a breathtaking night for A24 Films.
