Get Ready for the Jaw-Dropping Season 3 Finale of ‘The White Lotus’!
“I think people are going to hate Mike White.”
That’s the bold prediction from actress Charlotte Le Bon when she was asked to spill some tea about the upcoming season finale of The White Lotus, which is set to air this Sunday on HBO. It seems like the anticipation is building, and the stakes are higher than ever!
Mike White, the mastermind behind the series, is bracing himself for the backlash. But if history is any guide, he knows he’ll get a mixed bag of reactions from fans. “I’m always going to get people who are mad,” he admits, reflecting on the show’s journey that has racked up an impressive 43 Emmy nominations. “I remember last season, halfway through, they were like, ‘They don’t know what to do with Jennifer Coolidge,’ and I’m like, ‘Just shut the fuck up.’ And then they were mad that she died!”
Despite the potential for outrage, White is confident that the 90-minute season finale is exactly what he envisioned. “As a filmmaker, it’s a piece of work where I’m like, ‘I can’t believe I did that.’ A lot of it is because there are so many talented people working on it, but it just feels like it racks focus in a way that’s very satisfying as a writer,” he explains. “And so, yeah, it’s sad, but my hope is that it will feel like a cathartic sad or a satisfying sad and not a ‘What the fuck?‘ sad.”
While some of the stars from season three claim they’re in the dark about how it all wraps up, many others are more than happy to drop hints about the finale. “Season three is about spirituality, it’s about life and it’s about death, and you get all of them in episode eight,” shares Walton Goggins, sporting a mischievous grin that’s a rare sight for his character.
Jon Gries, who has survived two previous Lotus finales, isn’t about to spill any secrets. Instead, he warns viewers, “It is shocking — absolutely, mouth-agape shocking,” while Lalisa “Lisa” Manobal adds, “You’re not ready for it.”
Aimee Lou Wood describes the finale as “profound,” but she doesn’t stop there. She elaborates, calling it gut-wrenching and surprising. “There’s triumph, there’s despair; it’s kind of the full spectrum of what White Lotus can be — it’s all in there,” she says. “And also, I love the way it always repeats a format, but what’s occurring within it is so different, and I think that this particular death is very different from the other deaths.”
Michelle Monaghan keeps it simple, stating that it’s “emotional and deeply satisfying.” Jason Isaacs echoes her sentiment, emphasizing the importance of a strong conclusion: “There are three important parts to every film: the ending, the ending, and the ending,” he says. “And this end is perfection.”
Leslie Bibb adds her own flair, urging fans to prepare themselves: “Get fucking ready. Like, get ready. Let’s fucking go.”
As the finale approaches, the excitement is palpable. Fans are left wondering what twists and turns await them in this climactic episode. With the promise of shocking revelations and emotional depth, it’s clear that The White Lotus is gearing up to deliver a finale that will be talked about for ages.
