The White Lotus season 3: How many episodes will it be?
Earlier today, the fantastic news came out that The White Lotus season 3 would be premiering on HBO in February. Now, why not discuss something else significant here in the form of the episode count?
For the past few months, we have heard here and there in passing that we were going to be getting a larger chunk of stories than ever before for the Mike White series. The first season managed to bring us six, whereas the second season brought us seven. Now, the network has confirmed that the Thailand-set story will be offering up eight episodes where we can see the drama unfold in all sorts of crazy ways.

Just in case you were wondering how eight episodes of content are going to be filled up, go ahead and take a look at the massive full cast this time around: Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, Walton Goggins, Sarah Catherine Hook, Jason Isaacs, Lalisa Manobal, Michelle Monaghan, Sam Nivola, Lek Patravadi, Parker Posey, Natasha Rothwell, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Tayme Thapthimthong, Aimee Lou Wood. Additional cast include Nicholas Duvernay, Arnas Fedaravičius, Christian Friedel, Scott Glenn, Dom Hetrakul, Julian Kostov, Charlotte Le Bon, Morgana O’Reilly, and Shalini Peiris. That is a ton of people, but it makes sense given that you want to present a full panoramic view of everyone at the hotel, whether it be guests, workers, or locals. Some local talent is being used to go along with familiar faces like Monaghan and Goggins.
The major thing thematically we know about this season right now is that spirituality is going to be at least one of the central themes. A larger mystery is also possible, especially when you stop in and consider how there were questions about mysterious deaths that were prevalent through both of the first two chapters of this story.
