<\/picture>\n <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\nDespite the inevitably negative Tripadvisor reviews that probably followed the incidents of season one, more and more people are checking in to The White Lotus<\/em>. Need proof? HBO has dropped about four seconds of <\/em>first-look footage for White Lotus<\/em> season two in a preview reel of the streamer’s upcoming shows. If you jump to the 16-second mark in the following video, you’ll catch a quick glimpse of Jennifer Coolidge making her rightful return to the series while holding on tight to a man and his moped. Fellow cast members Aubrey Plaza, Theo James, Meghann Fahy, and Will Sharpe are also seen clinking glasses of champagne after a concierge greets them.<\/p>\n\n \n<\/aside>\nBut beyond the guests featured in the video, there are still more check-ins to come: The Hollywood Reporter<\/em> previously reported that actors F. Murray Abraham, Adam DiMarco, Tom Hollander, and Haley Lu Richardson had joined the cast of the HBO show’s second season as series regulars. It was also previously reported that Michael Imperioli and Leo Woodall would be joining the ensemble. After it was previously rumored that season two of The White Lotus <\/em>will take place in Italy, a source confirmed to variety<\/em> <\/em>that yes indeed, the show’s second season would film in the Sicilian resort town of Taormina. Like the season before it, a Four Seasons hotel will serve as the stand-in for the fictional luxury-resort chain, and we can assume filming began earlier this year, since the hotel’s website stated that \u201cit’s closed to guests until April 1. \u201d How do you say \u201ceating ass\u201d in Italian? We even got character descriptions for the new recruits that led us to believe the second season will keep exploring themes like intergenerational masculinity crisis and the dark truths of girlbossery:<\/p>\nFahy and James will \u201cstar as husband and wife Daphne and Cameron Babcock.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sharpe will play \u201cEthan Spiller, a man on vacation with his wife Harper (Plaza) and the Babcocks.\u201d<\/p>\n
Woodall will be \u201cJack, described as a magnetic guest staying at the White Lotus.\u201d<\/p>\n
Abraham will play \u201cBert Di Grasso, an elderly man traveling with his son and grandson.\u201d<\/p>\n
DiMarco will be said grandson, \u201ca recent college grad\u201d (Imperioli was previously announced as the middle generation in this lineup).<\/p>\n
Hollander will be \u201cQuentin, an English expat who is vacationing with his friends and his nephew.\u201d<\/p>\n
And Richardson will play \u201cPortia, a young woman who is traveling with her boss.\u201d<\/p>\n
It’s all so delightfully murder-mystery party, is it not?<\/p>\n
