Another trip to a White Lotus is already booked. Ever since the jaw-dropping season 2 finale, The White Lotus season 3 has been on everyone’s minds. Fans can breathe easy—creator Mike White will be taking viewers to Thailand for the third season. At the start of 2024, HBO revealed several new cast members who will be stirring up the drama this time around.
While the double Hollywood strikes delayed production, filming for The White Lotus season 3 began in early 2024. The show, renewed in November 2022, has already earned numerous awards for its critically acclaimed second season.
From the expected premiere date to the new location and cast members, HollywoodLife has all the latest details on The White Lotus season 3.
The third season of The White Lotus, set in Thailand, will premiere on February 16 on HBO and be available for streaming on Max.
Filming began in February 2024, though HBO network chief Casey Bloys previously noted that the season was delayed by the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. “White Lotus season 3 probably would have been in play for 2024, but it’s now 2025,” Bloys said in November 2023, according to Variety.
Meghann Fahy shared with Glamour that creator Mike White “writes so quickly and doesn’t do many revisions.” The first season of the hit show premiered in July 2021, followed by the second season in October 2022.
