Parker Posey is winning rave reviews playing Victoria Ratliff in the latest season of “The White Lotus.” The role was a long time coming.

White Lotus star Parker Posey said landing her role was no easy feat. In fact, it took almost two decades for creator Mike White to write something for her.

Patrick Schwarzenegger dishes on joining the latest season of "The White Lotus," including making friends with the cooking staff in Thailand, his amazing co-stars, and teasing that the best is yet to come in the "bonkers" second half of the season.
