Playing Gracie Darling's Morgana O'Reilly on how The White Lotus changed her life
The New Zealand actress shares why she thinks she landed the role of Pam on The White Lotus and how it has impacted her career since. Her new series, Playing Gracie Darling, premieres August 14 on Paramount+. Video transcript Well, actually, I hope this doesn't come off as egotistical, but I was like, I, I, before, actually, part of the reason why I think I got White Lotus is because a year or so before that, I'd sort of come to this thing and you, you hear it with other actors in interviews about their careers, where they, the moment they realised they really had to be them, right? Like some sort of variation of that story where they realised that it was just about being authentically them, and that they were so over just trying to be something for everybody else, that I had come to this point where every audition I sent, I was like, well, you'd even though I don't always believe this sentence, but I say it to myself, you'll be lucky to have me, you'll be lucky to have me, you'll be lucky to have it. And this is what I would do. If you hired me, this is my version, instead of, I wonder what they want. Maybe I should be this, that, the other thing. And so, I feel like I had already, I'd just come to that kind of self what is it? Awareness or like comfortability, authenticity. And I reckon that's part of the reason why Mike White loved the audition so much is because it was just like, well, here's, here's my version. Yeah. And I and then, so after getting White Lotus, what's really nice is now more people believe that too. So, um, so I can get some respect, finally. It's about time, honestly. About time. Oh my God. Oh, you slog it out. I know sometimes I look back and I go, if my drama school self, if I could go back and talk to my drama school self and imagine if I, I don't know what she would say if I could sit down and say, you're gonna, you're gonna do this and you're gonna do that and you're gonna do this, and it's gonna be amazing. Um, but your, the biggest leap will happen in 18 years. Can you, can you hang in there?

American Eagle Needs To End Its Sydney Sweeney Campaign
Among consumers aged 15 to 25, American Eagle Outfitters makes the most popular jeans. For years the brand's marketing has tapped into just the right tone of what those consumers want and delivered a product with a well-earned reputation for great fit at an opening price point today of $36. Jeans have been the backbone of the brand's relevance and performed consistently. In 2023, the core denim business generated almost $1.6 billion of revenue for the company. Recently, American Eagle created a marketing campaign with the rising starlet Sydney Sweeney (known for her roles on the TV shows Euphoria and The White Lotus). The tag line of the campaign has been 'Sydney Sweeney has great jeans.' The campaign is a play on the word 'genes' and highlights Sweeney's blue eyes and blonde hair. In one ad, Sweeney is quoted saying, "Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color," and adding, "My jeans are blue." The campaign has generated backlash from consumers who believe it highlights white privilege and discriminates against minorities and people with different bodies and skin than idealized, white, young people. So Here's The Problem You'd think that all the attention the campaign is getting, even the criticism, would be good for the brand. And for a while, it seemed like it will work as intended. But recent data from indicates that consumers are literally voting with their feet and not in a good way. Store visits to American Eagle stores are now down compared with the prior year. The Road To Hell For its part, American Eagle says the campaign "is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story. We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way. Great jeans look good on everyone.' I believe American Eagle and that the messaging that people are hearing was unintended. I've met senior executives there and they are all uniformly impressive and focused on their business. But good intentions doesn't matter. Consumers decide what they hear and their decision is the only one that counts. It's clearly left-leaning consumers that are objecting to the campaign. And given the ascendancy of the right in our politics right now, avoiding American Eagle is one way consumers can exercise power when they are feeling powerless. Because American Eagle depends on the sale of jeans to young consumers and because younger people are more likely to be left-leaning, American Eagle is especially vulnerable to this kind of consumer reaction. It's possible that other things are causing negative store traffic but given how dramatically it has turned, it seems likely that the campaign is the culprit. The Only Choice Whatever the intentions were originally, the campaign is now counter-messaging to a huge segment of American Eagle's audience and getting involved with issues that are hurting it. And now the numbers are showing it. So the campaign has to end. It will undoubtedly cost money to exit the campaign but it seems unlikely that keeping the campaign is worth having reduced store traffic on the order of 10% year-over-year. American Eagle will undoubtedly create a more anodyne campaign to follow this one. The last thing it needs now is more attention on this campaign. Hopefully it happens as soon as possible. Market positions like American Eagle Outfitters has with young consumers are almost impossible to create at this scale. Preserving that position is key and quick action needs to be taken.

Laos-born designer Be Inthavong, creative director at Jim Thompson, will speak as part of the panel 'Dressed to Impress: Fashion as a Narrative Force.' Inthavong's collaboration with the art department of the third season of 'The White Lotus' — filmed in Thailand — saw his elegant kaftans and signature textiles become integral to the show's visual language. More from Variety Sam Nivola Breaks Out: 'The White Lotus' Favorite on Getting 'Lost' in Character, Why Hollywood Must 'Create New Stars' and Getting 'Cut Out' of 'Maestro' Jason Isaacs Says 'White Lotus' Equal Pay Earned Each Actor $40,000 an Episode: 'Do I Mind That I Wasn't Paid More Than' Younger Co-Stars? 'I Never Work for Money' Sam Rockwell on Choosing His 'White Lotus' Leopard Underwear and Why 'Sinners' Made Him Believe Hollywood Will Survive The panel explores how designers and fashion brands use series as creative platforms, how product placement evolves into cultural currency, and how series makers can benefit from stylish, story-driven collaborations in an era where series set trends in fashion, interiors and lifestyle culture. The panel 'Storytelling 2030: Who Pays, Who Plays? Power, Platform, and the Price of Creativity in a Changing World' examines how the greenlight process now hinges not only on great storytelling but also strategic partnerships and navigating an evolving financing landscape. The panel features Benjamina Mirnik-Voges, VP original production, the Walt Disney Company Germany, and Sabine de Mardt, president of Gaumont Germany. In 'Nordic-German Co-Producing,' in partnership with Göteborg Film Festival, key creatives and decision-makers from both regions discuss opportunities and challenges in Nordic-German collaborations. Speakers include Miira Paasilinna, COO of Anagram Group and managing director of Anagram Sweden, who brings vast experience producing and selling international productions, like Disney+'s first Nordic original 'To Cook a Bear' and Season 3 of SVT's 'Thin Blue Line.' The panel 'Beyond the Usual Suspects: Reinventing Co-Productions' will tackle examples of co-productions between atypical territories, that signify a creative response to a demanding market, but also a response to a global audience's wish to see more cross-cultural narrative.

Speakers include Stijn Van Kerkhoven, creator and director of 'Oh, Otto!' In partnership with Fantasy Filmfest, the panel 'Building Fear That Stays With You: How Horror Works in Episodes' features Turkish director, producer and writer Can Evrenol ('Baskin,' 'Housewife,' 'Çiplak') and German director and writer Till Kleinert ('Der Samurai,' 'Hausen'), discussing how long-term dread, tension-building and mythologies unfold in serialized storytelling, enabling deeper character arcs and emotional horror. This year's workshop series ranges from producer-focused sessions – such as 'Germany 2026: Film & Series Funding – Turning New Rules Into Opportunities,' offering hands-on insights into the latest developments in German funding from experts at the German Producers Alliance (Produktionsallianz) and PROG Producers of Germany – to writer-centric topics like 'Development Hell' by screenwriter and creative producer Elena Lyubarskaya ('Pauline,' upcoming 'The City of Blood'), which tackles a common dilemma for many scriptwriters: why projects get stuck in endless rewrites and how to break free. Seriesly Berlin also includes the German premieres of several international series. Highlights include the Belgian queer drama 'Oh, Otto!,' the Colombian coming-of-age thriller 'Eve's Rib,' about young people discovering their sexuality while hunted by a serial killer, the German series 'House of Bellevue,' set in Berlin's dazzling ballroom scene, the Kazakh series 'Kazakh Scary Tales,' about an investigator being confronted with a supernatural case, and the Canadian documentary series 'Sanajiit (Inuit Makers),' immersing viewers in Inuit culture. 'With this year's program, we remain true to our mission of creating spaces for stories and themes that often have no place on other stages. We want to bring forward voices and topics that are usually left unspoken. Seriesly Berlin aims to show the unexpected, to spark conversations, and to push the boundaries of storytelling,' festival director Dennis Ruh said.
