From there, the episode dials back a week, as the season’s principal players arrive to their modern Fantasy Island-like resort. Just as before, “White Lotus” mastermind Mike White introduces a bevy of new characters, and while they all seem easy to read at first, make no mistake – there’s definitely more lurking underneath here.

The White Lotus” is back, and so is Belinda, the resort masseuse played by Natasha Rothwell.Season 3 of the Emmy-winning HBO series will look sparkling new in a lot of ways — from its new set of characters to its Thailand location.
