Harry Potter and The King’s Speech star Helena Bonham Carter has left the Season 4 cast of The White Lotus.
“With filming just underway on Season 4 of The White Lotus, it had become apparent that the character which Mike White created for Helena Bonham Carter did not align once on set,” an HBO representative said in a statement Friday.
“The role has subsequently been rethought, is being rewritten and will be recast in the coming weeks,” the statement continued. “HBO, the producers and Mike White are saddened that they won’t get to work with her, but remain ardent fans and very much hope to work with the legendary actress on another project soon.”
Set at the Cannes Film Festival, next season of the social satire will feature Vincent Cassel, Steve Coogan, Ari Graynor, Alexander Ludwig, Chris Messina, Kumail Nanjiani, Chloe Bennet, Sandra Bernhard, Heather Graham, Max Greenfield, Rosie Perez, Ben Schnetzer and Laura Smet.
