Woody Harrelson on 'The White Lotus' Exit

Woody Harrelson was initially set to be part of HBO's The White Lotus Season 3 but ultimately did not appear due to scheduling conflicts with a family vacation. Despite rumors of a salary dispute, Harrelson clarified that his decision was not financially motivated. The actor was initially considered for the role of Rick, which went to Walton Goggins, and later signed on for the role of Frank, which Sam Rockwell eventually played. Harrelson praised Rockwell's performance, stating he couldn't have done as well. The White Lotus maintains an equal pay policy for its cast members, reportedly paying $40,000 per episode. Despite the production setbacks, the season has been successful, and there is speculation about Harrelson's potential involvement in Season 4.
