Jason Isaacs’ funny scenes that were cut out

Jason Isaacs’s White Lotus deleted scenes and shocking finale Twist secrets shared

Jason Isaacs’ White Lotus Season 3

Jason Isaacs played the role of Timothy Ratliff in The White Lotus season 3 – a character who was spiraling, surrounded by dark thoughts, but whose scenes were as intense on screen as the things that were happening behind the camera. And yes, some of them got cut from the episode.

Double full-frontal that we missed

Isaacs told that there was a flash for the first time in a bathroom robe scene… then the conversation continued and he got up again – the robe opened, the family’s collective “Daaaaddd!”

moment. For him, the second take was more funny, but in the final edi,t only the first one remained.

From monk costume to eco-brag

In one deleted gag, Isaacs was running away from the jungle as a monk.

And in another scene, when Christian Friedel asked, “How was the journey?”,

the reply was, “Long layover, but commercial Udaa, the planet was saved.”

This self-credit joke was his favorite — but it got cut.

Tim’s dark thoughts

Throughout the season, Tim thought about ending his life so that he wouldn’t have to face the FBI’s money laundering case.

Sometimes he thought of killing his wife (Parker Posey) first, sometimes he thought of targeting his elder son, Saxon (Patrick Schwarzenegger).

Isaacs told that Patrick’s fiancée accidentally overheard and thought that the ending would be the same.

Poison twist in the finale

In the climax, Tim tried to poison the family by excluding the youngest son, Lochlan.

But fate took a turn – Lochlan made a smoothie with a poison-tainted blender, got badly injured, but was saved by a miracle.

The family came out alive, but Tim warned: Everything is going to change.

Emmy nomination and inner journey

Episode 8 earned Isaacs an Emmy nod for Outstanding Supporting Actor.

The dialogue was short, but the inner transformation was massive — from suicide to Buddhist acceptance. Isaacs says this was his “reveling,” not unraveling.

BTS photos and Secret Jon

During the 7 months of Thailand shoot, he took thousands of photos — from getting hurt on a yacht to the headless photoshoot of “Secret Jon” (Jon Gries).

This season of The White Lotus is proof that a lot of gold stays behind the camera — and we may never get Isaacs’ version of comedy cut, but his story and BTS energy have already become a cult legend.
