Let me tell you, filming the reboot of Magnum P.I. in Hawaii has been nothing short of a dream come true for actress Perdita Weeks. Ever since she joined the show in 2018, she's been soaking up the sun and dazzling her fans with breathtaking bikini photos on social media. It’s like she’s living the ultimate tropical fantasy, and we’re all invited to tag along.
Perdita isn’t shy about sharing how filming in Hawaii feels like a world away from her previous gigs. Back in October 2018, during an interview with Cinemovie.com, she opened up about the stark contrast between her current location and some of her earlier roles. “I’ve shot in a lot less glamorous places in suburban England,” she confessed. “It’s kind of amazing. We’re shooting in a different location every day and we’re only in sound stages twice a week. Even the drive to work is just spectacular. It’s the most beautiful country.” You can practically hear the awe in her voice as she talks about the island paradise that has become her workplace.
The reboot of Magnum P.I. has reignited the excitement for fans of the original Tom Selleck-led drama. With thrilling plots and compelling characters, the show has captured hearts around the globe. Perdita plays the fierce and intelligent Juliet Higgins, Thomas Magnum’s investigative partner. For this Lost in Austen alum, the role has been nothing short of transformative. She loves that her character is hands-on and resilient, bringing a fresh energy to the series. “I’ve done a lot of really physical roles,” she shared. “I really enjoy it. It’s really fun. I mean, I’m not properly trained in martial arts, but I’ve learned a lot along the way. I have a very supportive family who encourage me every step of the way.”

Over the seasons, Perdita’s character, Juliet Higgins, has grown and evolved in ways that have captivated audiences. Fans have fallen head over heels for the dynamic between Higgins and Magnum, especially their playful banter. In the show’s fifth season, the chemistry between the two finally sparked into romance, giving viewers the romantic storyline they’ve been craving. Speaking with NBC in February 2023, Perdita teased what’s next for the couple. “The rest of the season is showing where that goes, with two people who are meant for each other, but then having to navigate working together and being in dangerous situations,” she revealed. “Higgins is somewhat highly strung, and I thought she might be more jealous than she is. They’ve been very generous with her, seeing her interact with other people. It’s actually going quite well thus far, so we’ll see. It’s definitely fun.”
Perdita’s talent extends far beyond Magnum P.I.. The British actress has an impressive resume, featuring roles in The Tutors, Four Seasons, Great Expectations, and more. Her fans adore her not only for her acting skills but also for her stunning style both on and off-screen. Whether she’s strutting down the red carpet or lounging on the beach in a bikini, Perdita always turns heads. When she’s not filming, this Prowl star keeps herself fit with quick workouts. “When I’m at home in the U.K., I like to run cross-country and do a lot of bodyweight training,” she told Watch in July 2019. “When I’m visiting a city, I’ll find somewhere to do Bikram yoga. And if I have access to a gym, well, then it’s a mix of everything.”
