Is The Bigger Cast A Good Sign For The White Lotus Season 3?
Mike White Has Teased A Super-Sized Third Season
The third installment will take place in Thailand, with a focus on Eastern religion and spirituality.While little is known about the upcoming episodes beyond that, at least in terms of its story, a recent sizzle reel did reveal thefirst footage ofThe White Lotusseason 3. The brief clip highlights the return of Rothwell as Belinda, in addition to teasing that the characters are up to no good. At one point,one of the characters says, essentially, that what happens in Thailand remains a secret.
A lot more is known aboutThe White Lotusseason 3 cast, which is a mix of established talent like Goggins,Scream 3andMr. & Mrs. Smithstar Posey,Mission: Impossiblealum Monaghan, andThe Gilded Age’s Coon. There are also rising talents, such as Schwarzenegger andSex Education’s Aimee Lou Wood. In terms of talent that may not be as well-known to general audiences, Dom Hetrakul, Tayme Thapthimthong, Miloš Biković, Christian Friedel, Morgana O’Reilly, Lek Patravadi, and Shalini Peiris are all part of the new cast as well.
It remains to be seen how White will juggle the super-sizedWhite Lotusseason 3. It could be that the larger ensemble makes the whole season feel over-stuffed. One positive possible outcome is that the large group of actors willallow for more mixing and matching between the scene partners. In past seasons, different guests at the hotel rarely had meaningful interactions, unless they shared the same storyline. Now, that could change if the set-up for the new season allows for more mingling between groups.
