Actress Parker Posey, known for her role as Victoria Ratliff in season 3 of ‘The White Lotus’, confessed to forgetting the identity of the character who meets their demise in the upcoming April 6 finale. Co-star Patrick Schwarzenegger, who portrays her onscreen son, revealed his anticipation to witness the conclusion alongside viewers, stating his ignorance of the ending. Even his real-life mother, Maria Shriver, remains unaware of the finale’s outcome despite fielding numerous inquiries.
Each installment of ‘The White Lotus’ has famously culminated with a death, a detail shrouded in secrecy by the show’s executive producer. Parker Posey, echoing the curiosity of fans, disclosed her initial knowledge of the ending but confessed to now drawing a blank on the pivotal detail.
As anticipation mounts for the HBO series’ season 3 finale, Posey and Schwarzenegger join a multitude of eager spectators awaiting closure. Notably, Jon Gries teased that assumptions about the finale are likely to be inaccurate, adding to the intrigue surrounding the concluding episode.
Creator Mike White expressed pride in the forthcoming hour-and-a-half episode, emphasizing its grand scale and impact. While acknowledging the viewers’ varied reactions, White hopes to deliver a conclusion that strikes a poignant and fulfilling note rather than a bewildering one.
To maintain the element of surprise, the production team devised multiple fake endings and enforced strict confidentiality measures during the filming of the crucial scene, ensuring that only essential personnel are privy to the resolution.
Another individual close to the cast eagerly anticipating the finale is Maria Shriver, the mother of Schwarzenegger. Despite being on a book tour for her new book, I AM MARIA, she has been repeatedly asked about her son Patrick, The White Lotus, and the fate of Saxon. In a recent Instagram post on April 3, Shriver shared her confusion, stating that although she is Patrick’s mother, she is completely in the dark about what will happen. She playfully encouraged followers to share their predictions for the upcoming finale and promoted her actual book, I AM MARIA.
