Extreme measures were taken to protect the White lotus‘End.
Executive producer David Bernad has revealed in a new interview the efforts dedicated to the pre -production of HBO The successful series “for the case” of future leaks.
“We have false endings for scripts,” Bernad spilled People’s magazine Before the end of April 6 of season 3.
“So we write, we have six different finals, and distributed false finals distributed to people in case someone filtered something, and then we could say that there are different false endings.”
The showrunners also went through similar lengths during the production phase.
“And then, when we film the final scene, it is a blocked set,” he continues. “So no one really has access to what we were shooting and there would be noWhite lotus Participants seeing what we are doing. “
When season 3 began to shoot, there were “three secrets”: how season 3 ends, the return of Jon Gries, after killing Tanya by Jennifer Coolidge in season 2, and Sam Rockwell’s multi-episodium arc.
Bernad continued detailing how these standards confirmed through all phases.
“Jon was really committed to keeping the secret,” he said to the publication. “And when we travel and enter Thailand, he, once, rode with the team on a bus, instead of flying the 45 minutes or whatever. I think he drove like, 12 hours from Phuket to Bangkok.”
“But we were filming in the four seasons, a scene with Jon Gries, and there were people looking and filming from a room,” he recalled, and pointed out that the crew immediately jumped into the control of damage.
“They didn’t know what they were filming was sensitive, and I was really scared to publish it. So I had the hotel manager and brought them to the set and put them a bit and put them on my side.”
Bernad said his first suggestion was to eliminate the video, but to guarantee confidentiality, he also brought them to “be on the set.”
“[We] Say, “we have to make them part of the experience”, to be able to eliminate all the images they had, “he recalls.” Without knowing it, they did not realize that they were filming something that was very sensitive. “
