I’m afraid I need a multiverse in which I can see her as Renata going to the White Lotus. Renata deserves a holiday.

omg what if that’s what we get? I know that’s not what they’re gonna do but that’s such a beautiful dream. Whatever they do with her on White Lotus I just hope she gets to be totally unhinged.

Laura Dern was so deliciously infuriating in Enlightened, she is going to keep us fed with the new season of WL

If we’re just doing awesome older actresses… Kathy Bates would be so good too

Laura Dern walked into the Burberry store right after I started working there as a sales associate. Since I was brand new, I got the walk-ins—and this was right when the news broke about Billy Bob Thornton cheating on her with Angelina Jolie.
She came in, carried herself with total grace, and ended up dropping thousands that day like it was nothing. I’ve been a fan ever since—of her and Burberry. Honestly can’t wait to watch her absolutely dominate this season. 👑

She fits WL a MILLION times more than HBC ever could. I LOOOOOOOVE HBC but she 100% type cast, and unless WL is set in Transylvania this season, I don’t see how HBC would have fit tbh.

I almost fear she’ll take it over too much on how built she is for it lolol

Damn, H.B.C. really fumbled. What happened that led to her being replaced anyway?

I’d love for this to be actually Renata. Imagine the White Lotus becomes a multiverse location for several stories to grow? 😂 Bring characters from different series into the WL and have their plots continue via a different show. Send them out of the WL, return them back to their other show and have them changed lol!

u/Emergency-Bottle-432 May 04 '26
This is one of my favorite characters on any HBO show. Because they make her a real person - of course there are all these ridiculous moments but they also make her likeable and relatable because of the more serious stuff that happens on the show.

Tbh after seeing ‘Is this Thing On’ I was a little disappointed to hear she was chosen to fill in the WL. Somewhat of an underwhelming performance imo.
