This Aubrey Plaza Prank Scared Her Co-Stars on The White Lotus!

The White Lotus star Aubrey Plaza plays a sadistic yet amusing prank on her co-stars from The White Lotus season 2.

Aubrey Plaza is best known for playing the iconic April Ludgate in the popular sitcom, Parks and Recreation. She joined the cast of The White Lotus in season 2, which premiered on HBO on October 30.

Season 2 features Plaza as a straightforward, level-headed lawyer called Harper Spiller, who stands out as a comparatively rational and sane voice among the group of privileged vacationers.

According to GQ, Plaza recently pulled off a sadistic prank on her fellow co-stars while shooting for The White Lotus season 2 in a hundred-years-old hotel in Sicily. The hotel where the cast has been shooting used to be a convent previously.

Plaza reportedly arranged reed diffusers from the hotel in a Blair-Witch-like symbol in Adam DiMarco’s makeup room. She did the same on the floor of her own dressing room to scare her co-stars, Haley Lu Richardson and Meghann Fahy.

She further awakened the April Ludgate in her and continued the prank by slipping in “here lies” notes under her co-stars’ hotel room doors. But unfortunately, the hotel’s security footage revealed that it was Aubrey Plaza all along!

This is not the first time Plaza has pranked her co-stars on sets. Her most famous prank remains the one where she arrived at the red-carpet premiere of Ingrid Goes West sporting the exact same dress as her co-star, Elizabeth Olsen.

The prank made perfect sense in the context of the film as well, as it revolves around a stalker on the internet (Aubrey Plaza) who travels to Los Angeles to meet her Instagram idol (Elizabeth Olsen).

Another time, Plaza played a prank on Gabriel Bateman, who played the role of her son in the Child’s Play remake. Bateman and Plaza often tried to scare each other on sets in innovative ways. However, in this case, Bateman denied being scared of her pranks, unlike her co-stars from The White Lotus.

Following The White Lotus season 2, Plaza will be seen in Megalopolis directed by Francis Ford Coppola and Marvel’s Agatha: Coven of Chaos, the spin-off of WandaVision. Her co-stars in these two projects must start preparing from now on if they don’t want to be victims of Plaza’s elaborate pranks!
