The White Lotus Series Continues Season Three, Filming In Thailand
JAKARTA - The White Lotus series will continue the story into the third season. Reportedly, this production will continue in Thailand.
The first two seasons of The White Lotus were held at the Four Season resort in Hawaii and Italy. If they are still following the trend from before, it is likely that they will shoot between four points in Thailand.
It is known that there are four Four Season resorts, namely Bangkok, Tokyo Mai, Koh Samui, and The Golden Triangle. As one of the largest hotel chains in Thailand, the setting of this place may follow the concepts of the first and second seasons.
Mike White as the creator of The White Lotus had planned to continue production in Asia with an eastern culture background.
"The first season highlights money, and the second season about sex," Mike White said on a siniar.
"I think the third season can highlight satirical and humorous sides when talking about death and the spiritual side. It feels like a rich bird to do another round at The White Lotus," he explained.
Launching Variety, White is still considering specific areas in Thailand. In addition, the players have not been announced but considering that the second season comes with a new player's ensemble, it is likely that new players will also attend.
The White Lotus tells the story of the lives of travelers enjoying their vacation. Day after day, conflicts began between travelers, hotel staff and even the location itself.
Since airing in 2021, the series has had extraordinary success and a positive response. 10 Emmy awards and two Golden Globes were won by the series which initially became six episodes.
Because of this success, HBO changed the concept to anthology and continued the story to the second season in October 2022. One month passed, they officially continued their story to the third season.
