Nicole Kidman would be up for a role in the next season of The White Lotus, she revealed at the weekend.The actress, who starred in the erotic thriller Babygirl with Harris Dickinson last year, was asked by IndieWire at the premiere of her new movie Holland if she’d ever be interested in joining a new season of the HBO show, directed by Mike White.Kidman, who co-produced and appears in Holland, said of The White Lotus, which has been renewed for a fourth season, “I don’t think I’ve ever been asked.

Jim Halterman Television series don’t come much buzzier than “The White Lotus,” and audiences are flocking to watch another round of (mostly) new jet-setting characters while awaiting the Max show’s trademark of a murder before the season’s end. Actors like Parker Posey, Walton Goggins and returning star Natasha Rothwell add to the Emmy-winning series’ appeal, but so does another major draw – the location.

The White Lotus might be billed as an anthology series with a different cast each season, but certain characters have had recurring roles on the show.The character which connects all three seasons so far is Greg (Jon Gries), whose turbulent relationship with Tanya McQuoid (Jennifer Coolidge) stems all the way back to the first season in Hawaii.Other characters have been caught up in Tanya’s whirlwind too, namely Belinda (Natasha Rothwell) and Portia (Haley Lu Richardson). The former makes a return appearance in season three, set in Thailand, where she encounters Tanya’s ex-husband Greg.Other cast members in the third season include Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, Walton Goggins, Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Parker Posey and Patrick Schwarzenegger.In the finale, we discover Greg had devised a plot to kill his wife Tanya aboard a yacht owned by his longtime friend Quentin.

Michael Imperioli and Aubrey Plaza, and Season 3 (airing Sundays at 9 p.m. on HBO and Max) has Jason Isaacs, Parker Posey, Carrie Coon and Patrick Schwarzenegger.The show has already been renewed for Season 4, and James Marsden seems like a natural fit. During a recent interview when Marsden was promoting his Hulu show, “Paradise,” The Post asked if he’d do “The White Lotus.” “That would be fun,” he said.

The White Lotus continues to be one of the best shows on television.Created by Mike White, the comedy drama series follows the exploits of guests and staff at the luxury White Lotus hotel resort chain in various locations around the world, with the first two seasons set in Hawaii and Sicily respectively.The third season, set in Thailand, similarly features a mostly new ensemble cast, including Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, Walton Goggins, Sarah Catherine Hook, Jason Isaacs, Lalisa Manobal, Parker Posey, Aimee Lou Wood and Patrick Schwarzenegger.While each season offers a standalone mystery, some narrative elements carry across, mostly through Jennifer Coolidge’s character Tanya McQuoid and her relationship with Greg, who is played by Jon Gries.The White Lotus season three’s place on the timeline is yet to be confirmed, but after episode two, we know the third season definitely takes place after season one. Beyond that, there’s also a lot of evidence to suggest it takes place after season two.In season three episode two, Belinda (Natasha Rothwell), who appeared in the first season, recognises Greg (Jon Gries), who is now going under the name Gary.

The White Lotus is back—and it's as wild and wonderful as ever. Mike White's beloved satirical show follows a predictable, winning formula: a group of wealthy (primarily white) Americans descend upon a luxurious exotic resort.
