New Original Series ‘Hotel Costiera’ premieres on Prime Video, September 24
‘Hotel Costiera’ is a highly anticipated series and it’s safe to say, the time has come, you can now prepare to binge watch the series starring Jesse William (Daniel De Luca) on Prime Video. Latasha M. Ford with Awards Buzz had the exclusive opportunity to connect with Jesse Williams and director Adam Bernstein for an in-depth look at the behind-the-scenes details.
Jesse shared his unique experience filming in Italy for the first time, highlighting the commitment, challenges, and benefits of working abroad. He noted, “I’d filmed in Hawaii before – in terms of just distance from the mainland – but I think this is my first time filming overseas. Obviously, Grey’s is huge overseas, so I’d done press in many countries, but I’d never been in production.”
Both Adam and Jesse further elaborated on the challenges posed by constant accessibility, significant time zone differences, and the profound impact on personal life, particularly when separated from family. Adam shared, “It’s morning for them (his family), so now I would wake up at 2:00 am just to call my kids. You know, I’d set an alarm for 3:00 am just to call the kids to say hi before they go to school or, or come back from school. So it was pretty rough on the sleep. I really broke all the sleeping rules, that’s for sure.”
