HBO’s The White Lotus showed viewers a vacation to remember, receiving critical acclaim and 10 Emmy Awards for its sleeper-hit first season. The limited series turned anthology is returning for its second season in a new luxurious location, and fans are already wondering whether the dramedy and social satire will return for another year.
Though the network has yet to renew the show for Season 3, creator Mike White recently told Deadline that he does have ideas for a third White Lotus branch.
“We just turned in our last episode to the network yesterday, so it’s hard to think about the next race,” he told the outlet. “But if we did, I think it’d be fun to maybe go to a whole different continent. You know, we did Europe, and maybe Asia, something crazy like that, that would be fun.”
The Enlightened scribe also hinted that a third season could include another appearance from Jennifer Coolidge, whose VIP heiress Tanya McQuoid is the only character who made the jump from season 1 to season 2. Besides McQuoid, the second season features an all-new cast of guests and staff inhabiting the luxury resort in Sicily, Italy.
“Jennifer is my friend and everybody loved her in the first season, and I was like, ‘I can’t go to Italy without Jennifer.’ And maybe that’s still the case. Like, maybe you can’t go to Japan without Jennifer, either,” White said.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the director also gave a hint regarding an upcoming season’s plot, sharing that his initial pitch for season 2 populated the hotel with political and business tycoons.
“Originally, it was more of like a Bilderberg conference, more about getting into some of the bigger power dynamics there,” White said, referencing the annual forum attended by American and European governmental leaders and industry experts. “But Sicily was a totally different vibe than the idea I pitched. That didn’t seem right.”
So will we see Tanya McQuoid in a scenario that sounds more Succession than Sicily? Only time (and Season 2’s ratings) will tell.
