The White Lotus season 3 is officially on its way.
Walton Goggins, who will join the hit HBO anthology series in its next season, took to social media to share a behind-the-scenes look at some of the actors bonding during filming.
Sharing a carousel of photos via Instagram on Sunday, July 7, Goggins, 52, captioned the memories with, “Ain’t no mountain high enough… ain’t no valley low enough,” seemingly referring to fond memories made with his colleagues.
The 7 photos, credited by Goggins to Instagram user @lifebywhite, show him alongside fellow confirmed cast members including Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon and Michelle Monaghan, who commented on the post, “me too baby!!!” after @lifebywhite wrote, “Gonna miss this!!!”
Mike White’s anthology series The White Lotus is returning for another star-studded season. “Reflecting on [the show’s] humble, run-and-gun origin as a contained pandemic production, it’s impossible not to be awestruck by how Mike orchestrated one of the buzziest and most critically acclaimed shows,” Executive Vice President of HBO Programming, Francesca Orsi, told Variety in […]
Goggins wrote in response to @lifebywhite and 48-year-old Monaghan’s comments, “We will participate in this table for the rest of our lives.”
In the post’s first photo, Goggins included a Friends sticker alongside Bibb, 49, Coon, 43, and Monaghan, who are all seated at an outdoor table to share a meal with Goggins.
The setting’s tropical surroundings are likely to be Thailand, as HBO confirmed in January that filming for season 3 would take place in Koh Samui, Phuket and Bangkok and the network cemented a partnership with the Tourism Authority of Thailand.
