So instead she’s telling me and my recorder in her Dumbo loft, where she lives with her husband, film producer Andrew Form. Daddario’s just finished taking photographs in Khaite and Phoebe Philo—her first real experiment with maternity style. Until recently, she’s been shooting the second season of AMC’s Mayfair Witches in New Orleans, wearing “whatever my character was wearing.”
Her castmates on the show quickly figured out she was expecting as she had extreme morning sickness. “I was on set, and I was throwing up and having make-out scenes with my costars right after,” Daddario tells me. “By week five, I was like, There’s no way I’m going to be able to hide this.”
Admittedly, she wasn’t doing the best job of hiding it anyway. When someone asked if she wanted a turkey sandwich, Daddario told the crew she couldn’t have deli meats. Her costar Ben Feldman asked if she was pregnant. When she attempted to be nonchalant about it, he responded: “Well, why are you announcing no deli meat?”
A fair point. So Daddario fessed up. Plus: “I was like, If I tell my job that I’m pregnant, I’m going to get a lot of time off to go throw up in peace,” she says. Did it work? “No,” she responds, laughing. “[However] I have wonderful costars who have kids, and everyone was very understanding about making out with a nauseous, vomiting girl.”
