Jason Isaacs, known for his role in 'The White Lotus', has stood firm against Duke University, which criticized the show's portrayal of suicide and its use of the school's brand. At a recent panel, Isaacs humorously wore a Duke T-shirt, alluding to the tension surrounding the show's controversial themes, especially regarding a character's mental health struggles during a dramatic season finale that culminated in several deaths. Duke’s vice president condemned the series, expressing concerns about its imagery and impact on the university's values.
The White Lotus not only uses our brand without permission, but in our view uses it on imagery that is troubling, does not reflect our values or who we are.
Timothy had been suicidal over getting caught committing white-collar crimes - a fact which he hid from his family as he spiraled.
