Hbo Max: Last News

Industry has lost one of its core cast members heading into season four.According to a Deadline Hollywood report, sources claim that Harry Lawtey – who portrayed Robert Spearing – has exited the series and will not return for season four.Deadline reports that Lawtey’s exit is due to scheduling conflicts, though the publication was unable to identify which of his projects will clash with season four’s production. Production on Industry season four is due to kick off in the UK sometime next month.However, the show’s remaining main cast – including Myha’la, Marisa Abela, Kit Harington and Ken Leung – are all due to return for season four.Lawtey’s exit from the show also serves as a rather natural farewell for his character.

“The White Lotus” is back for Season 3, this time in Thailand (airing Sundays at 9 p.m. on HBO and Max). Executive producer David Bernad told The Post that when it comes to finding the perfect location for each season, “There’s a macro approach, which is ‘what’s a country that has a film community or local crew that also has a tax rebate that’s film friendly?’ We start in a broader sense, and each season has a larger theme.”Each season of the Mike White-created dark dramedy / mystery series follows a group of different wealthy miserable people on vacation at the fictional “White Lotus” luxury resort – and each season starts with a death, before slowly revealing the events leading up to the incident.

HBO‘s The White Lotus caused controversy among fans even before the first scene.The new theme tune, a departure from the first two seasons, has been viewed by many as a downgrade.‘Aloha!’, Cristobal Tapia de Veer’s season one theme, was an immediately recognisable hit with viewers thanks to its unique vocal style. Season two won an Emmy for the evolution of those themes, keeping aspects of its predecessor while offering something new to reflect the show’s shift in location.‘Enlightenment’, the composer’s third theme for the show, seems to have veered away from past motifs and gone in a new direction.

Season 3 kicked off on Feb. 16 — and on Tuesday, Max announced that 2.4 million viewers tuned in on premiere night, in a 57% increase from the Season 2 premiere.

“The White Lotus” went there.The Season 3 premiere of the hit HBO series kicked off with an apparent incest storyline between Patrick Schwarzenegger’s character, Saxon Ratliff, and his younger brother Lochlan (Sam Nivola).The pair gave viewers incestuous vibes after they arrived in Thailand with their sister Piper (Sarah Catherine Hook), dad Timothy (Jason Isaacs) and mom Victoria (Parker Posey).Toward the end of the episode, the brothers are laying in bed in their shared room when Saxon says their sister is “pretty hot” but is probably still a virgin, and asks Lochlan what porn he likes.Then, Saxon gets naked in the bathroom, and notices that Lochlan is staring at him.After the episode aired, viewers flocked to X (formerly Twitter) to share their reactions to the creepy scenes between the brothers.“Just saw season 3 premiere of White Lotus.
