“Creator Mike White says he’s hoping to start filming the Thailand-set season at the beginning of 2024.” –Vanity Fair

A revised version of the familiar theme song plays while the camera pans across various images on a colorful wall tapestry hanging inside the White Lotus Chiang Mai, including:

• The seeded curves of a halved papaya.
• A monkey eating the papaya. A hungry cormorant watching.
• Two Asian elephants locking tusks, crushing blossoming orchids beneath their feet.
• A woman in a longtail boat dancing for a monkey while being stalked by a crocodile.
• A tower in the middle of the sea. A Buddhist monk sitting peacefully in the tower, surrounded by people drowning.
• An elephant draped in finery, lifting up a sword with its trunk. A monkey riding on its back with palms pressed together.
• A house on stilts with a woman leaning longingly out the window. A couple secretly making love underneath.
• Women washing each other in shallow waters, surrounded by dead fish. A man peeking at them through tall bamboo.
• Men riding on horses, stabbing wild boars. A tiger lying in wait behind a giant taro.
• A monk meditating with one hand and refusing a shapely, plump pomelo from a monkey with the other.
• A woman beckoning a cobra to follow her into a lotus pond.
• A single white lotus in the center of the pond, outgrowing all the others.
