Walton Goggins Shares Why He Cried When He Learned He Had ‘The White Lotus’ Role


The US actor played troubled Rick in the third season of the hit dark comedy.

The actor, with the rest of the cast, spent months holed up in The Four Seasons resort in Ko Samui, Thailand, while filming the dark satire. Twice Emmy nominated, Goggins was previously best known for his role in US crime drama Justified and Amazon Prime’s post-apocalyptic sci-fi Fallout. His other HBO series The Righteous Gemstones benefited from his rising star by airing immediately afterwards, with a reported one million viewers every episode.
