Alexandra Daddario arrives to our cover shoot dressed in an oversized turtleneck, with Joan Didion’s “Slouching Towards Bethlehem” tucked under her arm. Her haunting blue eyes dance around the studio in New York’s Little Italy neighborhood.
Despite blockbuster roles in the “Percy Jackson” films, “San Andreas,” “Baywatch” and “True Detective,” Daddario, 33, still remains startled by her growing celebrity. “It can be so jarring,” says the LA-based actress. “After ‘Baywatch’ there were dumb paparazzi photos of me in slippers and a pair of oversize pants and I was like, ‘I can’t dress like this anymore.’ So I have been getting into fashion a little more.”
