Mike White’s The White Lotus is in full bloom with the announcement of several primary cast members for the show’s third season. Leslie Bibb (Tag, Iron Man, The Babysitter: Killer Queen), Jason Isaacs (The Patriot, The Death of Stalin, The Riddler: Secrets in the Dark), Michelle Monaghan (Source Code, Mission: Impossible – Fallout, Pixels), Parker Posey (Dazed and Confused, Scream 3, Superman Returns), Dom Hetrakul (The Marine 2, Water Boyy: The Series, Bangkok Dangerous) and Tayme Thapthimthong (Mechanic: Resurrection, Skin Trade, Farang) will join the cast, with Natasha Rothwell (Insecure, A Year and Change, Saturday Night Live) returning. From the look of it, The White Lotus Season 3 cast is just as exciting as previous installments of the series.

The White Lotus Season 3 takes place in Thailand, with filming scheduled around Koh Samui, Phuket, and Bangkok in February. The plot revolves around a new group of guests at another White Lotus location. Frustratingly, few details about the cast have been made available. Still, we know the cast features a patriarch, a female corporate executive, an actress, a couple of mothers, including a country club wife, a misfit, and a yogi. Rothwell returns as Belinda for the third season. Deadline says the casting process for the third chapter began hours after the SAG-AFTRA strike concluded. Fans can expect more cast announcements in the lead-up to filming.

“It’s going to be a supersized White Lotus,” White mentioned in November about The White Lotus Season 3. “It’s going to be longer, bigger, crazier. I don’t know what people will think, but I am super excited, so at least for my own barometer, that’s a good thing.”

White’s award-winning series dominated the season with 20 Emmy nominations in 13 categories, winning ten prizes, including Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series. The White Lotus is one of HBO‘s hottest series, with fans climbing the walls for details about the show’s return. The White Lotus Season 3 cast announcements should satiate fans for at least a few minutes.
