Parker Posey is winning rave reviews playing Victoria Ratliff in the latest season of “The White Lotus.” The role was a long time coming.

Last week, actor Parker Posey had TODAY’s Craig Melvin in giggles when she practiced her “White Lotus” character’s Southern drawl in a clip that since went viral. Now this week, her co-star Patrick Schwarzenegger got in on the joke.

Parker Posey has said the cast of The White Lotus were “always going to hospital “ in Thailand. The actor, who plays Victoria Ratliff on the hit series, told The Sunday Times Style magazine that she fell ill after eating some dodgy fish, which also left her co-star, Sam Nivola, 21, poorly.

White Lotus star Parker Posey said landing her role was no easy feat. In fact, it took almost two decades for creator Mike White to write something for her.
