"The White Lotus" is back to add some chaos to the 2025 TV schedule, and there’s already an early favorite casting choice to talk about: Parker Posey! Since Season 3 of The White Lotus premiered over the weekend, I haven’t stopped thinking about her being a hilarious addition as the wife of a wealthy financier, who is secretly getting in big trouble amidst their Thailand family vacation. After talking to the cast, I’m not the only one who thinks she’s going to be a standout this season.

00:00I mean, for me, I think Parker was really funny to watch
00:03live on the day, but then, of course,
00:07I had a lot of scenes with Amy Liu,
00:10and I think that she's brilliant and so funny and hilarious,
00:13and their dynamic is so off and odd and distraught,
00:18but she's great.
00:20Yeah, I was so excited to meet her,
00:21and I think more than being able to meet her,
00:23to watch her work was something that I,
00:27I was so nervous about the meeting part,
00:29I didn't even realize I'd have that opportunity,
00:32you know, in reality, and she's a force.
00:35You know, she's such a student and a master of the craft,
00:39and to see her transform into Victoria,
00:43I think audiences are gonna be really taken with her.
00:47Victoria has like the, like,
00:50The crazy vibe.
00:50The craziest, yeah, the crazy vibe
00:52and like the craziest, like, lines,
00:54like she says the craziest stuff,
00:56and I just, I can just, like, she's going to be everywhere,
00:59the memes that are going to be made
01:01use, like, with whatever she says,
01:03it's gonna go, like, just above and beyond.
01:08I don't know, I feel like Victoria,
01:09but also, I don't know, who do you,
01:11I mean, like, Chelsea as well.
01:13I think Victoria, I think you're right.
01:17Well, I mean, Lalisa, obviously,
01:19is already so huge that it's kind of impossible
01:23to rival that, but yeah, I think Victoria,
01:26I mean, her voice is, even just, like, hearing her talk,
01:29like, her being in character on set
01:30was just the funniest thing in the world, so.
01:33I also, like, just, I haven't,
01:36we haven't really, like, said this in any interview yet,
01:38but, like, I think it was really smart of Mike
01:41to pluck Parker because it kind of felt like,
01:43who's, like, another, like, 90s star that people loved,
01:47like, because now that Jennifer's gone,
01:49like, because I feel like they were kind of
01:51from the same time, like, as far as, like,
01:54what their careers go, so I thought that was, like,
01:57kind of clever, like, and brilliant of him to bring
01:59all of Parker Posey.
02:00Yeah, you're right, I hadn't thought about that either,
02:01yeah.
02:02Yeah, yeah, they kind of feel like they fit
02:03in the same universe, you know?
