It's time to head back to The White Lotus! Well, not quite, but with further new stars having now been revealed, anticipation for the new series is certainly building.
Filming is set to kick off in and around Bangkok, Phuket and Ko Samui this February 2024, with the latest season set to follow a new batch of hotel guests in an exclusive Thailand resort.
The first news of the cast arrived in January 2024 with the likes of Jason Isaacs (Archie), Carrie Coon (The Gilded Age) and Aimee Lou Wood (Sex Education) all joining the cast. More recently, news of Blackpink's Lisa making her TV debut in the series has also drummed up a fair share of excitement too.
While details about their roles remain under wraps for now, we do know that Natasha Rothwell will be returning to the series after her season 1 appearance as hotel spa manager Belinda Lindsey. One character who will not be returning for more is Jennifer Coolidge, who recently won the Emmy for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Tanya throughout the first two seasons of the show.
Accepting her accolade and underlining that Tanya won't be making a comeback, Coolidge said: "Mike White, thank you for this – thank you for giving me this opportunity to play this incredible character, and he says I'm definitely dead, so I'm going along with it."
