Followingseason 3’s setting in a luxurious resort in Thailand,The White Lotusseason 4 is set to explore another exciting global region. As an anthology series,The White Lotusfeatures a slate of new characters for each season, with only a handful returning for more than one.
During a recent episode ofVariety’sActors on Actors series, Parker Posey, one of the keycast members ofThe White Lotusseason 3, told formerFriendscastmate Lisa Kudrow that she should “be in season 4.” Kudrow revealed that she would be delighted to work with Mike White, the creator ofThe White Lotus, after noting that she has already known him in a social context. Posey encouraged Kudrow, who recently starred in HBO Max’sThe Parentingand Netflix’sNo Good Deed, that if there was enough traction on social media, Kudrow could be a top contender to land a coveted spot inThe White Lotusseason 4 cast.
Posey:Would you enter the White Lotus world?
Kudrow:Work with Mike White? Yes. I love Mike White. I’ve hung out with him at a party.
Posey:He gets around.
Kudrow:He’s social. And Brad’s Status was my favorite movie that year. I emailed him to let him know, because I had to — it was so good, I had to. I don’t do that a lot.
Posey:Oh, Lisa, you should be in Season 4. If there’s a big enough TikTok campaign, then it’ll happen.

Posey and Kudrow go on to compliment White’s writing inThe White Lotus, marveling at how he was able to come up with the entire 8-episode season 3 entirely by himself.
