Harper is in the bathroom with the door open when Cameron decides to just strip naked behind her, which she can see in the mirror.
James is no stranger to acting in the buff, going nude for his HBO series The Time Traveler’s Wife and PBS’ Sandition.
‘It is in my contract that I’m not allowed to do anything without being completely naked,’ James joked, adding that it ‘felt natural’ in the moment.

When discussing that scene itself, James added, ‘It’s interesting, [because] at first… we don’t know whether it’s deliberate or [if] it’s accidental. But it reveals itself.’
He added that, in the fifth episode of The White Lotus Season 2, audiences will realize, ‘there’s a purpose to it.’
