The creator of “The White Lotus”, Mike White, did not retain when he was questioned an alleged quarrel with the composer Cristóbal Tapia de Veer, calling the decision of Tapia de Veer to speak to the media a few days before the final of the season of the program “A B —- Bouger”.
The actor and the director informed of “The Howard Stern Show” Tuesday where he was asked about what happened with Tapia de Veer. The composer announced publicly in an interview with the New York Times that he would not come back for a fourth season of the successful HBO series,, And hinted conflicts between him and White going back to the first season.
“I just don’t think he respected me. He, as people know he is upset and dark and I don’t know, like, I watch reality TV,” White told Stern.
Tapia de Veer, who won three EMMYS for his work in the show, told The Times in the interview published on Wednesday that he had creative disagreements and fights with White, adding that the creator initially wanted music that lacked rush to the theme of the first season.
“He had a temporary score, a song that looks more like something you listen to in Ibiza, in a clubby place with a sexy and sexy atmosphere,” Tapia de Veer told The Outlet. “And there is literally no advantage. It is a good song; it is a beautiful music. There is absolutely not – whatever you find in the music of” White Lotus “, relationships with the characters – there is none of this. It’s just beautiful background music.”
When the third season of the show was created on February 16, social media exploded with public members who noted the theme song of the first two seasons, which was replaced by music that paid tribute to Thailand, where the season was set.
Tapia de Veer wanted to humor the public’s desire for the familiar melody of War Cry by weaving it in a longer version of the theme of season 3, but said that White refused because of their fights, Times reported. The composer downloaded the longer version on its YouTube last month.
White, on the other hand, said that he had never fought with the composer.
“We have never even really beaten, I don’t know what-he says we are done, I don’t think I have never fought with him, except perhaps some emails,” said White on “The Howard Stern Show”.
“But it was simply, as, as I give him notes, you know? As I did not think he liked to have the process of me or to want revisions or something else,” he said.
White said Tapia de Veer is not a team player “and wanted to do it in his own way,” but has always been “thrown” that the composer spoke to the press “for him ***” him and the show before the final.
“It was a kind of move B —-“, he said.
White also said he thought the composer was doing a big problem with differences in opinion, but stressed that he thinks Tapia de Veer is “very talented”.
Stern has also weighed on the reported quarrel.
“Why left a Hit Show Smash because you got some notes and some differences, just do it,” said Stern.
After the broadcast of the radio show on Tuesday, Tapia de Veer wrote on his account that he “will have to tell the whole story now”.
“I tried to avoid it, guy …”, wrote the composer.
