Patrick Schwarzenegger Revealed How Parker Posey Helped Him Develop His White Lotus Character, And Of Course It Involved His Genitals

by

Without a doubt, the third season of “The White Lotus” was among the most anticipated shows on the 2025 TV lineup. We were introduced to various characters at the resort named in the title, but the Ratliff family’s narrative stood out as particularly intriguing. Patrick Schwarzenegger received some insightful guidance from his on-screen mother, Parker Posey, regarding how to portray Saxon – the eldest of the three Ratliff siblings. Yes, their discussion about character development delved into Saxon’s personal life, and, indeed, his lower body was a part of it.

I had the pleasure of witnessing Parker Posey’s exceptional performance in Season 3 of “The White Lotus,” now streaming on HBO Max. As Victoria, the vivacious Ratliff matriarch with a captivating Southern drawl, she truly stole the show. Learning from her was an absolute joy, and I can confirm that Patrick Schwarzenegger shared this sentiment after visiting the “Hot Ones” set. He revealed that Posey imparted valuable insights on how he could bring his character to life more authentically. In his own words:

“Parker Posey taught me invaluable lessons about embodying my character.”

By framing it this way, the statement puts a personal spin on the experience and highlights the actor’s perspective, making it easier for readers to relate and identify with the content.

During the initial filming days, Parker Posey nonchalantly sat beside me before we even started shooting. She asked me, “Which body part does your character, Saxon, typically lead with?” and playfully touched my leg. I was taken aback since it wasn’t clear at that point. She explained to me, “Your character needs a specific body part he leads with,” which is when we decided that Saxon would lead with his genitals and strut around in such a manner.

It appears that Parker Posey may have been fully immersed in her role during their conversation, given that she referred to Patrick Schwarzenegger as her “son.” Furthermore, it seems that Schwarzenegger adopted a North Carolina accent while telling part of the story, suggesting he was influenced by Posey’s character.

The counsel given was valuable, considering Saxon’s overconfident nature. It wouldn’t be surprising if he chose that body part as a reflection of his character. This brash demeanor might have even influenced the creation of the adult film adaptation of The White Lotus.

On Season 3 of Mike White’s acclaimed drama, Patrick Schwarzenegger’s character, Saxon, embarked on a rather intriguing journey. His overtly sexual nature led to an unusual moment where he kissed his brother Lochlan (played by Sam Nivola). The storyline involving incest became increasingly complex and bizarre from this point forward.

It seems that the discussion about the Gen V actor’s genitals wasn’t limited to Parker Posey. In addition to his TV mother’s advice for him to be openly bold, he also had his father, Arnold Schwarzenegger, promoting his nude scene, and he gained significant attention for mentioning his son’s “penis” in an interview. Geez, thanks for that, dad.

In a somewhat unexpected twist, it appears that Patrick wasn’t the only one baring all on screen. Jason Isaacs, who portrayed Timothy Ratliff, Saxon’s father, likewise had a nude scene in his role. The Harry Potter fans, understandably thrilled, showed their excitement, although rest assured, it was a prosthetic that was exposed, not Mr. Isaacs himself.

In time, we’ll discover the shape that Season 4 of ‘The White Lotus’ takes and which aspects of the characters will be most prominent. However, if you yearn to revisit any of the other editions of luxurious getaways beyond my financial reach, you can do so by streaming seasons 1-3 on HBO Max.
