Aimee Lou Wood, known for her roles in $ex Education and The White Lotus, has discussed how her teeth have influenced her acting career, particularly when playing American characters.
Wood revealed that she was once informed that she couldn’t realistically portray an American due to her distinctly British teeth. This led her to jokingly propose getting veneers to better match the expectations for American roles.
In The White Lotus, Wood’s character Chelsea was initially written as American but was later adapted to be from Manchester following her audition.
She noted that her teeth betray her British background, even when she tries to speak with an American accent. While Wood has demonstrated her capability to convincingly use an American accent, as seen in a Chicago theater production, she admitted that her teeth often give away her true nationality.
