Season two's plot description has yet to be announced, but it'll follow the same dark holiday premise with a tribe of new holidaygoers checking into an exquisite resort in Sicily. Of those new guests will be a family trio, a husband and wife travelling with friends (possibly a couples trip?), a co-worker duo, one of whom is pregnant, a few British travellers, and more.

As an anthology series, "The White Lotus" season two cast will consist of almost entirely fresh faces — apart from Coolidge and Jon Gries, of course. Their characters — presumably Tanya and Greg, respectively, from season one — are seen riding on a Vespa in HBO Max's sizzle reel.

HBO has tapped Aubrey Plaza and Michael Imperioli as season two leads. Plaza will play Harper Spiller, a woman holidaying with her husband (Will Sharpe) and his friends (Theo James and Meghann Fahy). Their group will befriend Imperioli's character, Dominic, who is embarking on a family trip with his elderly father (F. Murray Abraham) and adult son (Albie DiMarco). Other cast members include Haley Lu Richardson, Tom Hollander, and Leo Woodall.

In the dark comedy's second instalment, guests will be staying at an ultra-luxe White Lotus resort in Sicily, Italy. The season was reportedly filmed at the Four Seasons San Domenico Palace in Taormina, Sicily. The resort features several restaurants, an infinity pool, and a spa with aromatherapy services, and boasts views of Mount Etna and the Ionian Sea. Celebrities like Audrey Hepburn and Oscar Wilde have been known to holiday there. While HBO has yet to confirm the exact filming location, its coming soon teaser did confirm the setting, and Variety reported that this particular resort was closed to guests for the early part of the year. So, it adds up.
