The White Lotus' Adam DiMarco knows Albie is missing the "spice"
The White Lotus' resident nice guy has been vying for the attention of a fellow vacationer, to no avail
This season of Mike White’s The White Lotus has delved into the way gender dynamics play themselves out in our modern world, as the vacationers come into interpersonal romantic and sexual battles over the course of the week. One of these visitors is Adam DiMarco’s Albie, who finds himself stuck on a nice guy loop with fellow American, Portia (Haley Lu Richardson).
In a new interview with GQ, DiMarco talks about Albie’s overcorrection when it comes to righting the wrongs of his cheating father (Michael Imperioli) and his misogynistic grandfather (F. Murray Abraham).
“He’s almost overcorrected things or tried to overcompensate in a certain direction. I think he sees his father and his grandfather as the other side of a pendulum and he’s trying to swing it back in a big way,” DiMarco says. “It’s just made him extremely in his head and he overthinks a lot of things as a result. We’re all like our parents more than we realize, too, so I think he’s fighting against his nature in a way, which must cause some anxiety.”
