The White Lotus Star Meghann Fahy discussed the possibility of reprising her role at New York Comic Con. The HBO drama is an anthology where each season takes place in a different location of the titular fictional luxury resort, including Hawaii, Italy and Thailand. Generally, each season features a different ensemble cast, but precedent was set for character returns when Jennifer Coolidge reprized her season 1 role as Tanya McQuaid in season 2. The upcoming White lotus Season 3 is also set to feature the return of Natasha Rothwell as season 1 staff member Belinda Lindsey.
During New York Comic Con, Screen Rant had the opportunity to sit down with Meghann Fahy, who played Cameron Sullivan’s (Theo James) dual wife Daphne in season 2 of The White Lotus. While she said she would “Never say never“, she reflected that she feelsReally good” About the character’s journey And where her arc lands at the end of season 2, indicating that she would rather not return though”I think about you a lotRead Fahy’s full quote below:
I feel really good about her journey. I love this character so much, and I mean, never say never, obviously. But no, I feel like she’s fine. She is in a good place. I think about you a lot.
What this means for Daphne’s White Lotus future
Her return is unlikely
Overall, the impression Fahy’s quote gives is dubious. first, She has no particular interest in returning to the White lotus Figure. Second, it seems to indicate that she has not yet been invited back for any future seasons, which could potentially indicate that there are currently no plans for her to do so. Given the fact that nearly two dozen cast members have already been announced for season 3, it seems unlikely that she is among them.
Another factor that could prevent Daphne’s return is Fahy’s plan. Since bringing her character’s arc to a satisfying conclusion in the White lotus season 2 finale, The star has taken on many additional projects And is set to appear in even more. This includes holding roles opposite Melissa Barrera in Your monster and Nicole Kidman in The perfect coupleAs well as appearing in such upcoming titles as the Christopher Landon-directed mystery thriller FallThe Zachary Levy drama The unbreakable boyand Netflix’s Julianne Moore comedy series Sirens.
Daphne’s absence may be for the best
Ultimately, it’s probably for the best that Daphne doesn’t return to The White Lotus. While returning characters appearing in future seasons helps keep the show feeling like it takes place in a consistent universe, Because too many returns at once would undermine its anthological premise and its realism. Maintaining a constantly shifting ensemble is also probably best for the longevity of the show, meaning that the continuity of future seasons does not depend on the return of any particular star.
