The White Lotus has returned for its third series, this time with a group of unsuspecting holidaymakers checking into the doomed hotel chain’s Thai getaway.
Though the exotic destination and cast (mostly) change from series to series, one common theme links the iterations of the critically lauded black comedy together: murder. Each series begins with a whodunnit-style death, with the events leading up to it – and eventually, the identity of the victim – being revealed as the series plays out. For its third time around, gunfire can be heard around the resort, leading to the death of at least one person – whether they’re a guest or an employee of the resort, we don’t yet know.
