The White Lotus has an interesting plot. Each season, it follows a new hotel guest’s interactions with other guests and staff and the dramatic events that occur while staying at the luxury resort. It is quite a satirical show, where most of the guests are portrayed as entitled rich people.
The first season of The White Lotus came out in 2021 and is set in Maui, Hawaii. There are several wealthy guests, ready to relax and unwind on a nice week-long luxury vacation. These guests display acts of classism, ignorance and stupidity during their stay. Throughout the episodes, aspects of romance, family dynamics, mystery, and even death occur. The season has a very dramatic ending, and some viewers found it controversial.
Season 2 came out in 2022 and is set in Sicily Italy, following another group of very wealthy guests. This season contains main themes of power, gender roles, romance and attraction, as opposed to the first season, which is mostly focused on identity and wealth. There is only one recurring character from season 1, Tanya McQuoid (Jennifer Coolidge). As the season progresses, more secrets and feelings are revealed. This season is dramatic, while still keeping the comedy aspect.
As we approach the show’s season 3 release date, fans have already uncovered some things that The White Lotus has in store. The show takes place in a new country every season, but still follows the trend of the fictional White Lotus resort chain. Fans know that this upcoming season will be set in Thailand. Stars such as Aimee Lou Wood, Leslie Bibb and K-Pop singer Lisa will all be joining the cast.
There is one important thing that a lot of fans wonder: what will the season 3 theme song sound like? Many fans agree that the theme song is one of the best things about the whole show. The theme song is different each season and changes the instruments and aspects of the song to match the vibe of the season while keeping the same main beat.
The main star of seasons 1 and 2 is Jennifer Coolidge, but there are many other popular actors and actresses such as Theo James, Aubrey Plaza and Sydney Sweeney appearing throughout the series. The show has won 15 Primetime Emmy Awards and 2 Golden Globe Awards. From the cinematography to the costumes, everything about this show is very well done and put together. The White Lotus season 3 will premiere on HBO and Max on February 16th 2025 at 9 p.m. Eastern Time (6 p.m. in Oregon).
