Laura Dern Joins White Lotus, Bonham Carter Out

Alina Bonham Carter is out of the white load as season 4, and Laura Dern is stepping in. HBO confirmed Dern's casting on April 28th, just days after Bonham Carter left production. The switch happened nine days into filming in France, where the show follows rich guests at a luxury hotel during the Khan Film Festival. The role didn't click for Bonham Carter once Cam was rolled, so creator Mike White re-wrote it specifically for Dern. She's not reprising her season 2 voice cameo as the angry wife yelling at Michael and Perioli's character. Instead, it's a fresh part, building on their past work together and enlightened. HBO said they're sad to lose Bonham Carter, but remain big fans and hope to team up again soon. Production keeps moving with stars like Alexander Ludwig, AJ Machaka, Camel Nanjiani, and Chris Messina are already on set at the Chateau de la.
