Ali Larter has opened up about one of the most difficult parts of filming Landman. Surprisingly, it has nothing to do with long hours or intense drama. Instead, she says bikini scenes are the hardest for her.
In a recent interview with PEOPLE, Ali Larter spoke honestly about her role as Angela Norris, the wife of Tommy Norris. Angela is often shown wearing bikinis and fitted outfits, which may look confident on screen, but Ali says those scenes are not easy to film.
Ali explained that no actress truly enjoys filming bikini scenes. She shared that it takes a lot of mental strength to walk onto set wearing very little clothing. Even though she understands that these scenes are part of the story, they bring up insecurities and anxiety.
She said that before filming, she has to work hard to push past self-doubt and focus on doing her job as an actress. Ali added that this challenge is emotional, not physical. Staying confident in those moments takes real effort.
Ali Larter also talked about Angela’s personality. She described the character as someone who is very physical, loves looking good, and enjoys beauty routines. Because of this, Ali has to spend extra time preparing for the role, which adds to the pressure.
However, Ali made it clear that her favorite scenes in Landman are very different. She enjoys the quiet and emotional moments between Angela and Tommy. These scenes allow her to focus on feelings and connection, not appearance.
Ali previously shared that she loves scenes where the characters talk honestly and slow things down. For her, those moments are more meaningful than glamorous shots.
This interview gives fans a real look behind the scenes and shows that even confident performances can come with hidden struggles.
The honesty from Ali Larter reminds viewers that acting often requires emotional courage, even in scenes that look simple on screen.
