The rumour mill is running again with people convinced 'Watermelon Sugar' singer Harry Styles is going to star in the next season of the comedy-drama series The White Lotus. After breaking the internet with his shaved head, Harry's fans are back with a new theory, and it's pretty convincing.
However, there's been an update on the rumours from Harry's team themselves – so you might want to read on for clarification.
HBO's The White Lotus season 3 has been confirmed but won't be coming to our screens until 2025 due to the SAG-AFTRA strike. Its creator Mike White has said that the new season is going to be "supersized" with a focus on "spirituality". It has also been reported that the new season will be filmed in Thailand.

According to Deadline, the series has begun casting 13 new roles for the season, including a character described as a 'yogi' - which is a Yoga and meditation practitioner. We'll explain why this particular character is relevant below...
With sources claiming that a male A-list singer has been plucked for one of these parts, people have already put their bets in and everyone is pointing to the Don't Worry Darling actor. But could they be right? Here's what we know.
Will Harry Styles be cast in The White Lotus season three?
Despite the whirlwind of internet rumours claiming Harry was set for TV drama stardom, it's since been reported Harry won't be joining the cast of The White Lotus series three after all. According to HuffPost UK, his team confirmed he won't be joining the show.
The rumours all began when pop culture gossip page DeuxMoi received a blind item claiming that a male A-list singer would be joining the cast of the popular comedy-drama series for season three. Followers were quick to speculate, with one writing: "I bet it’s Harry Styles."
Another comment read: "Harry. Maybe why he shaved his head?" In November Harry sent the internet into a frenzy when he chopped of his well-loved locks and started sporting a new hair 'do.
It was reported that his mother Anne Twist insisted that his new hair was purely down to the singer wanting a "change" whilst on holiday.
After how spot on DeuxMoi were with Harry's haircut it's near impossible to dismiss their statement, so it's very likely an A-lister is joining the cast.

Casting list is looking for “a yogi”
Why did Harry recently shave his hair? 🤔
Australian radio producer Leon Sjogren thinks he has "nailed" the casting of the the next season as he is sure Harry is going to be cast as the 'yogi'.
He wrote, "Calling it early. Harry Styles in the new season of White Lotus." before adding: "Male A list singer apparently been cast. Casting list is looking for “a yogi” Why did Harry recently shave his hair?"
Speaking on Fox's Fifi, Fev and Nick breakfast show he said: "He's going to be the yoga teacher."
The British singer broke into the acting world with his debut film in 2017 Dunkirk and since has starred in Don’t Worry Darling, My Policeman and Marvel’s The Eternals - perhaps he is adding a TV series to his resumé.
Harry and Warner Bros Discovery, which is the parent company of HBO, are yet to comment on the rumours. And so far, there isn't a release date for third season of The White Lotus but filming is rumoured to start in February 2024.
