The critically acclaimed HBO anthology series "The White Lotus" is set to return for a third season, and it's bringing some major star power with it. Pop superstar LISA, best known as a member of the K-pop group BLACKPINK, has been cast in a lead role for the upcoming season.
The new season of "The White Lotus" will take viewers to Thailand, a departure from the previous two seasons which were set in Hawaii and Italy respectively. In a recent teaser trailer released by the show's creator, Mike White, LISA can be seen welcoming guests to the luxurious White Lotus resort in Thailand.
"Welcome to The White Lotus in Thailand, ka", LISA says in the clip, bowing slightly with her hands clasped together in a traditional Thai greeting. The short teaser offers a glimpse of the stunning Thai locales that will serve as the backdrop for the new season, including iconic landmarks and lush tropical landscapes.
While details about LISA's specific character and storyline have been tightly guarded, the announcement of her casting has already generated significant buzz among fans of both the show and the K-pop star. LISA will be joined by a diverse ensemble cast for the third season, including a mix of returning favorites and new faces.
Returning cast members include Natasha Rothwell, Leslie Bibb, Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Carrie Coon, Parker Posey, and Scott Glenn. Newcomers to the series include Dom Hetrakul, Tayme Thapthimthong, Christian Friedel, Morgana O'Reilly, Lek Patravadi, Shalini Peiris, Walton Goggins, Aimee Lou Wood, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Sarah Catherine Hook, Sam Nivola, and Nicholas Duvernay.
With a larger ensemble and a new tropical setting, creator Mike White has promised that the third season of "The White Lotus" will feature even crazier and more ambitious storylines than the previous two acclaimed seasons. Fans of the show and LISA's legions of devoted followers will no doubt be eagerly anticipating the new season's arrival on HBO Max sometime in 2025.
