Now that dust has moved to HBO The white lotus The final of the third season, the creator Mike White becomes frank on the award -winning composer at the Emmy of the show announcing that he leaves the show.
Speaking on Tuesday at Howard Stern, White was asked about the composer Cristóbal Tapia de Veer saying that he does not come back for the fourth season of the HBO drama after having Sirelé with the White Over Show score. The composer said The New York Times Last week, he left the show saying: “We have already had our last fight forever.”
“Honestly, I don’t know what happened except now that I read his interviews because he decides to do a public relations campaign about him leaving the show,” said White. “I don’t think he respected me. He wants people to know that he is daring and dark and that I do not know, as if I was watching reality TV. We have never really fought. He says we have finished. His way. The New York Times To shit on me and the show three days before the final. It was a bit of a slut movement.
White added that he had struggled with Veer in the first two seasons. “As the third season arrived, he had won Emmys and he had his viral song, he didn’t want to go through the process with me, he didn’t want to go to the sessions. He always looked at me with that contemptuous smile on his face as if he thought I was a chimpanzee or something … He was definitely a large part of a creative difference.
Stern was amazed: “You are the genius behind this thing. Why leave a successful show because you have notes and differences? Just work it.”
White replied: “It is very talented. (But) I never kissed someone’s ass so hard to have it done – to drive this horse in the water. Have fun with everything you do afterwards.”
In the Times History, from Veer said: “Maybe I was not a professional, and, for sure, Mike feels that I was always unprofessional towards him because I did not give him what he wanted. But what I gave him did ThisYou know – (won) these Emmys, the people who go crazy (for the show) … This is the main thing I am most happy with – it was worth all the tension and almost force music in the show, in a way, because I did not have many allies in there … It was a good struggle. “”
Season three having broken rating records for the series, White also revealed that he has currently renegotiated his HBO contract before the fourth season of the show, while Stern pressed him on the amount of money he will earn.
“We renegotiate at the moment, I’m really curious to know what this (amount) is,” said White. “I feel like I have financial security for sure … at some point with money, (you wonder):” Will it aggravate me? ” Having more money will make me more dysfunctional? »»
Stern, of course, also pressed White on the infamous “Branlet” between Patrick Schwarzenegger and the characters of Sam NivoLa and the Creator admitted that, to a certain extent, he was indeed trying to generate a shock and attention for the show.
“In the show, it is a trope where gay sex is like a fear of jump,” he said. “I just had the impression that we had to build a trope. We had made a false incest (in season two, where two characters turned out to be linked), so maybe we should do real incest. It would be an integral part of his character.
White also said that he had read all the final coverage and that he had caught a little about the (relatively modest) criticism.
“They criticize the spectacle in certain ways and they are more mean in certain ways (now that the show is popular),” said White. “I used to be this independent writer of the oppressed that people defend. Some things will hurt my feelings or I will feel misunderstood. The bad guys have become wicked. It’s like they don’t like Me. I guess I have to avoid this kind of thing or become more difficult, because it makes me move. “”
