Will Sharpe Went Too Hard on Himself in the Too Much Finale
“I had a bruise for a while, which they had to cover up in makeup.”
The new series from Lena Dunham frequently hearkens back to Jane Austen, as well as canonized London-set rom-coms of the ’90s and 2000s like Bridget Jones’s Diary and the work of Richard Curtis. Sharpe, who played Ethan on The White Lotus season two and more recently the tour guide James in Jesse Eisenberg’s A Real Pain, now gets to be a Netflix leading man opposite Megan Stalter in a role that isn’t a direct one-to-one for Dunham’s own love story with her husband Luis Felber, but is not not inspired by it. I really liked Lu’s music, and we worked together very closely on the songs, and a lot of it we did play live in the show, which hopefully gives it a slightly tactile feeling and isn’t too polished and bogus.
