Actor Alexandra Daddario, who received a nomination for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for the satirical series The White Lotus, responded to the critics who questioned her acting skills.

"That I'm a bad actor. I'm not a bad acctor," she said adding, "I've just done some projects that don't showcase me in the way that I should be showcased. Okay? Director and the writing is everything, and sometimes I'm lit poorly, but I'm not a bad actor. I got an Emmy nomination. How do you think I did that?," reported Deadline.

Following her Emmy-nominated portrayal of newlywed journalist Rachel Patton in the show's inaugural season, which was set in Hawaii in 2021, Daddario shared that The White Lotus creator Mike White had plans for Rachel and husband Shane (Jake Lacy) to return for a cameo in a future season, as per the outlet.

"Shane and I would be on a boat, talking about other people, annoying everyone around us," she explained. "Mike's brain is always working. That's the whole thing with his commentary on the world around him: He's always observing," according to Deadline.

In 2022, Daddario shared that "my agent hasn't reached out yet" about a Season 2 appearance; perhaps the characters will make a return for the current third season, set in Thailand.

Daddario is currently starring as Rowan Fielding on Mayfair Witches.
