Grace Van Patten and Jackson White: From Tell Me Lies to Calvin Klein's Valentine's Day Campaign
Grace Van Patten and Jackson White, who star in the Hulu drama Tell Me Lies, were pleasantly surprised by an email that changed the mood on set during a tense scene. The email revealed that they had been cast in Calvin Klein's Valentine's Day campaign, leading to a joyful reaction from the couple. Despite playing toxic exes on the show, they have received positive feedback from fans who found the show empowering. White, who plays a troubled character on the series, enjoys embodying the character's misfortunes, including a scene where he kicks a printer.
The couple's dream of working with Calvin Klein came true as they shot the campaign in Brooklyn. They share a love for the fashion house and have a habit of unintentionally coordinating their outfits. While shooting the campaign, they were asked to do various activities in a bright Brooklyn home, including cooking in their underwear. Despite being comfortable with baring it all on screen, Van Patten is nervous about seeing their campaign in public.
Van Patten and White keep their relationship details private but enjoy low-key Valentine's Day plans, possibly involving watching a romantic movie like The Break-Up. They appreciate the realness of the film's portrayal of relationships. After years of portraying intense dynamics on screen, the actors value their off-screen friendship and support each other during challenging days on set.
