The White Lotus Season 3 Recasts Another Role

The White Lotus season 3 has experienced a new cast shakeup. The anthology dramedy spins tales of murder and mayhem at a different location of the titular, fictional, luxury resort every season, moving from Hawai’i in season 1 to Italy in season 2 to Thailand in the upcoming season 3. The cast of the new season, which includes Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, Walton Goggins, Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Parker Posey, Natasha Rothwell, and Patrick Schwarzenegger, recently saw Miloš Biković replaced with Julian Kotsov after Biković made comments supporting Vladimir Putin.

Per Deadline, The White Lotus season 3 has recast another major role as production continues in Thailand. The Buccaneers star Francesca Corney will be replaced by Charlotte Le Bon in a role that is as-yet unnamed, just like every character in the season save Rothwell’s as she is reprising her season 1 role as staff member Belinda Lindsey. Reportedly, Corney was replaced because producers sought a star who could convincingly play older.

Everywhere You’ve Seen Charlotte Le Bon

Before joining the White Lotus season 3 cast, Le Bon held quite a few roles in both movies and television. The French Canadian actor has been in a wide variety of international projects in multiple languages since making her French-language feature debut as Ophélia in 2012’s Astérix and Obélix: God Save Britannia. She followed that by co-starring in the romantic comedy The Stroller Strategy the same year. She continued starring in many French-language projects through the early 2010s including the 2014 biopic Yves Saint Laurent.

She made her English-language feature debut in 2014 as well, starring as Marguerite opposite Helen Mirren and Manish Dayal in The Hundred-Foot Journey. Since then, she has occasionally returned to French performing including playing Lola in the crime show Cheyenne & Lola, but she has primarily taken on more and more roles in English-language movies opposite major stars including Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Idris Elba, Cillian Murphy, Oscar Isaac, Richard Madden, Jamie Dornan, and Sebastian Stan. Below, see some of her most prominent English-language roles since 2014:

It remains to be seen how important her character will be to the storyline of the new season of the HBO hit. However, The White Lotus will likely offer Le Bon an even bigger chance for English-language audiences to take notice of her talent. Even though she has already held major roles in prominent movies, the ensemble-driven nature of the show tends to allow every member to shine in one way or another.
