Jason Isaacs discloses _ The White Lotus_ cast's pay per episode
Jason Isaacs just shared that everyone in The White Lotus Season 3—no matter how famous—got paid $40,000 per episode.
He called it "a very low price" compared to other big shows and joked, "We would have paid to be in it. We probably would have given a body part."
All cast members get the same pay
The White Lotus pays all its main cast members the same, no matter their experience or star power.
This rule isn't up for debate and is meant to bring on actors who care more about the project than a huge paycheck.
Casting director Meredith Tucker put it simply: some people pass because of money, and that's totally fair.
I tend to spend whatever I earn anyway: Isaacs
When asked about sharing the same salary as less experienced actors, Isaacs said he's never acted just for money and admitted he tends to spend whatever he earns anyway.
The show's approach has been noted for its unique take on casting practices.
