Paltrow would indeed be fun but I don’t think she’d be interested in going to Thailand for 5-6 months. Isn’t she pretty much retired from acting these days?

Steven McKinley Henderson
Jenjira Pongpas (hotel manager)
James Marsden
Tony Jaa
Nasim Pedrad
Rose Byrne
Djimon Hounsou
Manny Jacinto
Stephanie J. Block
Nicole Beharie
Stanley Tucci

This was awhile back, but I recall one of the shows saying anther season of The Politician was being written. Also, and this is a big if, if Marvel needs Pepper Potts again for anything in the Multiverse (or whatever version) I would assume she would go for that. Doing the White Lotus would not shock me honestly and she could be the huge name in the cast. I just really want to see her do an HBO show at some point

I feel like Jane Levy would be a great addition.

A lot of great suggestions. I don’t think anyone has said Leighton Meester who I think could be a good fit. But I guess we have to factor in actors with younger children not necessarily wanting to relocate to Thailand for months.

I could maybe see Josh Holloway.

Maybe Dichen Lachman? An Australian actress with South Asian heritage…

I actually love Selena Gomez on Only Murders in the Building, I think she would make a great addition to The White Lotus.

This would definitely bring her out of retirement.

Absolutely yes to Parker Posey. And the fact she’s done an HBO series very recently makes it, perhaps, more likely?

The Amanpuri hotel in Phuket appears to be closed the months June, July and August. This probably indicates the filming location and schedule.

Should be a Spring 2024 premiere if that’s the case then. Season 2 shot from around February to July I believe.

Solidarity with the striking writers. Pay them the wages they are owed for bringing us the content we are all on here because of!
