Walton Goggins is about to star in The White Lotus Season 3, but there’s a catch!
While appearing on The Late Show, the 52-year-old actor revealed he had just returned from Thailand after shooting for the show’s third season for the past six months.
“I can’t tell you about the story of the character that I’m playing because I think [creator] Mike White would literally take one of us out,” he began.
However, he had something surprising to say.

“You get to stay at a five-star [hotel], but what they don’t tell you when you when you check in to the White Lotus is how expensive it is to check out of the White Lotus,” he went on to say.
Whlie cast members didn’t have to pay for their room in the hotel, they did have to pay for their incidentals.
“I swear this is a true story — not just for me but for everybody — six weeks into it, I go to pay my bill. I looked at my bill and I started laughing. Literally, [a hotel staffer] handed me the bill and I started laughing like, ‘Ha, yeah right! You guys are joking.’”
The hotel staff then confirmed that it was indeed his bill.
“You’re telling me Thai spiced cashews cost that much money?” he recalled. “I thought I had maybe, like, five. And they said, ‘No, you had 30.’”
He also purchased a $150 bottle of prosecco. “Is that what this is? Is that a $150 photograph?” asked Stephen Colbert while holding up a photo of the actor holding up the bottle by the ocean.
“It was a good time, it was a really good time,” Walton replied.
Season 3 is set to premiere in 2025. Find out who else is in the cast!
