The 37-year-old actress earned an Emmy nomination for her role as Rachel Patton in the first series of The White Lotus.
In her role as Lisa Tragnetti, Alexandra Daddario’s character receives a visit from Marty Hart (played by Woody Harrelson) at her home in the show’s second episode.
Lisa cuffs the cop and whips off all of her clothes before straddling him and playfully reads him his rights.
The explicit scene involved Daddario getting naked on set for real, and she decided to embrace it.
She told Men’s Journal: “I have a lot of thoughts on this topic, but for example, when True Detective came out and I was naked on the show, and it was huge for my career and the phone was ringing and I got some work off of it.”
“I really love acting, in my heart I’m just a theater nerd, and I sort of took that and said, This is good for my career, and embraced it.”
Daddario showcased her physique once more in The White Lotus, wearing a bikini as Rachel flaunted herself in front of Olivia and Paula.
She added: “I really love what I do.”
“I happen to have a lot of fun with getting dressed up and playing roles, and even on red carpets, I’m kind of playing a role.”
“And it’s great, it’s fun, but I think it can be negative, some of the attention, and so I try to ignore some of the more negative aspects of it.”
