Five actors have been added to the cast of the TV series "The White Lotus," and one of them is Taylor Swift's rumored ex-boyfriend.

On Tuesday, Variety reported that Walton Goggins, Sarah Catherine Hook, Sam Nivola, Aimee Lou Wood and Patrick Schwarzenegger have joined Leslie Bibb, Dom Hetrakul, Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Parker Posey, Tayme Thapthimthong, Miloš Biković, Christian Friedel, Morgana O'Reilly, Lek Patravadi and Shalini Peiris for the third season of the hit HBO series.

Per reports, one of the new cast members of "The White Lotus 3" was previously linked romantically to the "1989" artist.

In 2012, then-18-year-old Schwarzenegger was photographed with the "Love Story" singer while hanging out together on Independence Day.

They were also seen sharing laughs while walking along the beach that day.

The son of Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger also reportedly tweeted, "Had such an amazing day. Best 4th of July I could ask for. Hope everyone had a great day," at the time.

However, Hollywood Life reported shortly after that the two were just friends.

"She was in town to sing with James Taylor at an event at Tanglewood and is friendly with Patrick and the Kennedy family," a source reportedly told the outlet.

"It was all friendly and nothing in a loving manner."

The new season of "The White Lotus" is set to begin production this February in different areas in Thailand, including Koh Samui, Phuket and Bangkok.

HBO has reportedly partnered with Thailand's Tourism Authority for support in the filming and promotion of the series' third installment.

The previous seasons of "The White Lotus" were set in Hawaii and Sicily. 

 

"The White Lotus" started as a limited series in July 2021. But because of its success, HBO renewed it as an anthology series.

The dark comedy-drama TV series follows the story and interactions of the guests and employees of the fictional White Lotus resort chain.

"The White Lotus" was created, written and directed by Mike White.

Per Film Affinity, the series was included in the American Film Institute's Top 10 TV Programs of 2021.

The show boasts 15 Emmy awards and 43 nominations.
