Jason Isaacs Gave a Definite Answer to His Rumored Feud With 'White Lotus' Co-Star Parker Posey
Before the season 3 finale of The White Lotus even aired, feud rumors started to swirl about the stars of the show. Among the fan theories, for example, is that Jason Isaacs and Parker Posey, who played married couple Timothy and Victoria Ratliff in the series, didn't exactly get along. Now, he's shining some light on their dynamic.
In a new interview with Vulture, Isaacs answered a question White Lotus fans have been asking themselves all along: Why has he seemed closer to his onscreen kids (Patrick Schwarznegger, Sarah Catherine Cook and Sam Nivola) than to his onscreen wife?

'She's Parker Posey,' Isaacs said when asked about what it was like working with her. 'She's everything you think she would be.'
When pressed on the matter, Isaacs couldn't avoid hinting at some tension. 'She was playing someone out of her head, so she was given license to be bonkers,' he said. 'And then I'm playing someone out of my head.'
'So I didn't really look at her or talk to her or listen to her because I'm so much in my own tunnel,' he revealed. 'So, I can't really tell you what it's like to interact with her too much.'
So while Isaacs didn't exactly confirm that he and Posey are feuding, he's finally admitted that they didn't get along. Whether that was because of their 'method acting' or their own personalities, however, it seems we'll never know.
Previously, Isaacs discussed on-set drama in an April 9 episode of The Happy Hour on SiriusXM's TODAY Show Radio.
Isaacs stated that while filming the show on location in Thailand, the cast and crew 'were in a little pressure cooker together.' 'Like anywhere you go for the summer, there's friendships, there's romances, there's arguments, there's cliques that form and break and reform and stuff like that,' he explained.
Isaacs added that he's seen the rumors about who had issues on set, saying, 'I'm careful. I'm not stupid. I look at the Internet. I only read every single word written about The White Lotus and about everybody in it.' But assured fans that the 'amateur Sherlock Holmes' trying to figure out which cast members might be feuding don't have 'the slightest clue what they're talking about.'
'People who think they're onto something, and it then gets magnified because of a thousand other people. Nobody has any clue,' he said.
Hopefully he'll keep the clues coming!Best of SheKnows
