He stated that the unnamed A-list actor “did all the old tricks of performing differently off-camera than on,” adding, “It was horrible; I’d never seen anything like it. I used to admire this person.” While remaining vague about the identity, Isaacs noted many colleagues have been “bonkers” to work with.

Furthermore, Isaacs mentioned many colleagues have been “bonkers,” emphasizing that acting involves secrets. He believes it’s often not beneficial to expose the flaws of others publicly, as it serves no purpose but harm.

Isaacs prefers to avoid naming specific colleagues, citing that revealing such details offers little benefit besides sabotage. He concluded, “Acting is all about secrets.”

In the same interview, he revealed that he and his co-stars received only about $40,000 per episode for Season 3 of “The White Lotus,” describing the payment as “very low.”

He added that actors typically keep pay discussions private because public disclosure can upset audiences, but acknowledged that their compensation is generally low for major TV productions.

Despite the modest pay, Isaacs humorously admitted he and his cast members “would have paid to be in it,” joking that they might have even “given a body part.”
