Okay, let’s get to the cast! Leslie Bibb, Dom Hetrakul, Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Parker Posey, and Tayme Thapthimthong are the newcomers, while Natasha Rothwell is returning. That’s a great line-up, although I’ll admit my personal favorite new cast member from the bunch is Parker Posey. I mean, it’s Parker Freakin’ Posey! She’s great in everything, and she seems perfect for this particular series.
There’s no synopsis for the new season yet, but HBO says “The series will begin production in and around Koh Samui, Phuket, and Bangkok in February and will follow a new group of guests at another White Lotus property.” The first season was set in Hawaii, while season 2 was set in Sicily. Both seasons involve characters at different White Lotus resorts experiencing less-than-wonderful vacations, so it’s safe to assume season 3 will follow suit. No word yet on when we might see season 3, but it likely won’t be until the end of the year at the earliest.
