Get the latest on The White Lotus Season 3, including cast, filming locations, and what to expect from the new Thailand setting and storyline. Plus, read the news on Season 4, which was just pitched.

The White Lotus is (almost) back!
The Emmy-winning satire released a teaser on Monday, and Season 3 is fast approaching. It'll be set in Thailand, keeping up the theme where each season gets its own resort destination for a setting. Since The White Lotus' inception, it's wooed our attention with stellar casting and absurd plot lines. It only makes sense that the show revealed a buzzy new member on set: Blackpink's own Lisa stars in Season 3. Natasha Rothwell, who was in Season 1, is making a return to the screen alongside a swath of newcomers.
The show first debuted in July of 2021 and amassed popularity then, mid-pandemic. Since then, The White Lotus&nbsp;has received a variety of awards, including the AACTA International Award for Best Comedy Series, the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress (Jennifer Coolidge), and the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Casting, to name a few.&nbsp;In an interview <a href="https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/white-lotus-renewed-season-3-hbo-1235436872/">with Variety</a>, Executive Vice President of HBO Programming Francesca Orsi reflected on her pride for the show.
&ldquo;Reflecting on The White Lotus' humble, run-and-gun origin as a contained pandemic production, it&rsquo;s impossible not to be awestruck by how [the show's creator Mike White] orchestrated one of the buzziest and most critically acclaimed shows... we couldn&rsquo;t be more thrilled to get the chance to collaborate on a third season together," Orsi said. White reportedly already <a href="https://deadline.com/2024/11/mike-white-the-white-lotus-season-4-hbo-1236174131/">pitched Season 4</a> to HBO, which has yet to confirm a decision.
After the absurd and wildly dramatic endings to Season 1 and Season 2, it only makes sense fans are eager for the next installment of The White Lotus. Keep scrolling to read everything we know about the long awaited Season 3 of The White Lotus, including details on the cast, location, and plot.

<h2 style="text-align: center;">The White Lotus Season 3 Plot</h2>

The White Lotus' satirical approach to wealth and erratic behavior makes it an excellent and gripping <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/2021-emmy-awards-nominated-shows-to-binge-watch-ted-lasso-bridgerton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">binge-watch</a>. During the behind-the-scenes segment after the final episode of Season 2, White revealed what could be in store for the third season.
"The first season kind of highlighted money, and then the second season is sex," he said. "And I think the third season, it would be maybe a satirical and funny look at death and eastern religion and spirituality.&rdquo;
In a 2023 interview with <a href="https://ew.com/tv/the-white-lotus-creator-mike-white-teases-supersized-season-3/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Entertainment Weekly</a>, White told viewers to expect something big. "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," he said. The show's new cast member, Leslie Bibb, described her upcoming character as "complicated, strange, funny, scared, and complex" in a recent interview with <a href="https://www.etonline.com/media/videos/leslie-bibb-on-her-strange-and-complicated-the-white-lotus-season-3-character" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Entertainment Tonight</a>.
