In the upcoming season of the popular HBO series, she will be credited under her given name, Lalisa Manobal. Similar to all the other castings for the third season, her role has not been disclosed yet. The production is scheduled to commence sometime this month, and will be taking place in and around cities of LISA’s home country of Thailand, which include the gorgeous places of Koh Samui, Phuket, and Bangkok.
For those unfamiliar, ‘The White Lotus’ is an American drama, which unfolds the stories of guests and employees at the White Lotus Resort, who conceal a darker secret beneath their seemingly flawless fa?ade. The first two seasons, shot in Hawaii and Sicily, respectively, have received acclaim from both viewers and critics, and over the course of time, combined, have won 15 Emmys.
Although specific plot details about the upcoming season, created, written and directed by Mike White, have been kept under wraps, what’s known is that it will be shot around a new group of guests. The expansive ensemble cast already includes: Leslie Bibb, Dom Hetrakul, Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Parker Posey, Tayme Thapthimthong, Christian Friedel, Julian Kostov, Morgana O’Reilly, Lek Patravadi, Shalini Peiris, Carrie Coon, Scott Glenn, Francesca Corney, Nicholas Duvernay, Arnas Fedaravi?ius, Natasha Rothwell, Walton Goggins, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Aimee Lou Wood, Sarah Catherine Hook, and Sam Nivola.
Notably, Jennifer Coolidge, the standout performer of the series, will not be featured in Season 3. Speaking about how she feels about the new season, she stated, “I just want to say in all honesty, I’m very sad I’m not in it. I think (Season 3) is going to be good. There’s going to be all sorts of good stuff in it… It’s never, never a dull moment.”
