The White Lotus is making a long-awaited comeback, returning more than two years after the release of season two. The drama series will launch its third season with a mix of fresh faces and the return of a fan-favorite original cast member. According to People, show creator Mike White teased the upcoming season’s theme, explaining, “The first season we highlighted money and then the second season is sex and I think the third season, it would be maybe a kind of satirical and funny look at death in Eastern religion and spirituality — it feels like it could be a rich tapestry to do another round at White Lotus.”
