‘The Affair’ Actress Julia Goldani Telles Recalls Filming Pilot Episode With Cast

“The Affair” star Julia Goldani Telles, who plays Whitney Solloway on Showtime’s drama series, just shared a major throwback pic of her onscreen family. The photo was taken when the cast was filming the pilot episode four years ago.

On Sunday, Telles took to Instagram to pay tribute to her Solloway family in “The Affair” series. She posted a photo of her and the actors playing her onscreen family standing in their New York-based set. Present in the pic are Dominic West (Noah), Maura Tierney (Helen), Jake Siciliano (Martin), Jadon Sand (Trevor), Leya Catlett (Stacey) and of course, Telles, who plays the eldest Solloway child.

Telles revealed in the caption that filming for the pilot episode took place in 2013 when she was only 18, but she claims that she was “young & unafraid” at the time. The ballet dancer also poked fun at co-actor Siciliano who looks different now with his taller height and beard. She also noted how Sand has grown too, but she continues to regard him as the “munchkin” of the family.

Fans of the show couldn’t help but notice how much the actors have grown since the premiere episode. And some of them were surprised to know that filming for the pilot took place in 2013, given that it was aired on Oct. 12, 2014. One fan wrote: “Omg did it really start in 2013? That feels so long ago.” Another commented: “I love the show! You kids grow up so fast … loved the first season so much. I’ve watched it a dozen times.”

“The Affair” wrapped up its third season back in January. In the Season 3 finale, Whitney and Noah finally settled their differences after they had a heart-to-heart talk. Noah recognized his inadequacies as a father to Whitney after seeing the latter being assaulted by her boss in Paris.

Ahead of the show’s Season 3 finale, Showtime announced that it has been renewed for a fourth season. No specific date for the return of the Golden Globes-winning series has been given yet, but fans can expect a late 2017 return based on the premiere dates of the first three seasons, according to Den of Geek.
