White Lotus is one of the most popular series at the moment and a large part of the fans is eagerly waiting for the third part of the series.
In December 2022, the second season of the series ended dramatically White Lotus, and the creators promise that the third season will be even better than its two predecessors. The details of the new season are shrouded in mystery, but we still managed to find out a few details.
Location: Thailand
It is no longer a secret that the third season of the series is being filmed in Thailand, specifically in a hotel Four Seasons Koh Samui and in villas Anantara Mai Khao Phuket. This is not surprising, as the first season was filmed at the Four Seasons Hotel Maui, and the second season at San Domenico, the Four Seasons Hotel in Taormina. As producer Mike White hinted, the first season was about money, the second about sex, and the third could be devoted to the view of death and Eastern spirituality. In one of the interviews, he announced that he would talk about "Western people in Eastern culture" and the Eastern perception of spirituality.
The cast
In January 2024, Variety reported that six actors would join the cast of the third season of White Lotus. They are Leslie Bibb, Dom Hetrakul, Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Parker Posey and Tayme Thapthimthong. But it is not clear what their role will be in the third part of the White Lotus series. Shortly after, it was announced that Carrie Coon would join the cast, along with Christian Friedel, Morgana O'Reilly, Lek Patravadi and Shalini Peiris.
A few days later, more names were announced to join the cast. They include Walton Goggins, Sarah Catherine Hook, Sam Nivola, Patrick Schwarzenegger and Aimee Lou Wood. Blackpink member Lisa is also expected to make her acting debut.
And who is returning to the small screen?
Jennifer Coolidge has most likely already played her last role in the series, but in the meantime, some less recognizable characters are expected to return. Before the second season, White shared the idea that Connie Britton's character, who played Nicole, would return to the series. It is quite possible that we will see her in the third part. Michael Imperioli, who played Dominic in the second season, could also return. But we can say with certainty that Belinda, played by Natasha Rothwell, is returning. You probably remember Belinda from her role as a masseuse and therapist in the first part.
When will the new White Lotus see the light of day?
The first season debuted in the summer of 2021 and the second season in the fall of 2022. The third season was planned to air in 2024, but it is more likely that the impact of the recent Hollywood strike will not air until 2025.
