Aimee Lou Wood

Aimee Lou Wood has described the moment Angelina Jolie backed her up during a chaotic moment on set.

The White Lotus star acts opposite Angelina in upcoming dark comedy Anxious People, playing a reluctant bank robber who inadvertently takes a group of strangers hostage during an open house.

Speaking to Harper’s Bazaar, Aimee recalled that while she was filming a particularly emotional scene in the movie, she became overwhelmed after multiple crew members began shouting different instructions at her.

Instead of trying to quietly navigate the stressful situation so as not to appear difficult, she advocated for herself, and asked for one clear direction and no hand movements in her line of vision – a decision that was supported by co-star Angelina.
