The White Lotus wouldn’t be Harry’s first foray into the world of acting, with the singer previously taking the lead in the movies Don't Worry Darling and My Policeman.

He also had a small role in Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk, and later appeared in a post-credits sequence in the Marvel film Eternals.

Styles recently made headlines when he sheared off his much-loved locks of hair to sport a close-shaved look, as shown in a recent Instagram post by his brand Pleasing.

However, some on social media have suggested that this could be due to Styles pursuing a role in the third season of The White Lotus.

Gossip blogger DeuxMoi has suggested that an A-list singer is set to join the cast of the prestige drama in an Instagram post.

Australian radio personality and producer Leon Sjogren also tweeted: "Calling it early. Harry Styles in the new season of White Lotus."

He added, "Male A-list singer been cast," and, "Casting list is looking for 'a yogi'," before asking, "Why did Harry recently shave his hair?"

So, is Harry set to appear in the third season of the acclaimed HBO anthology series? Read on to find out.

Will Harry Styles be cast in The White Lotus season 3?

Harry’s team has set the record straight once and for all, confirming to Huffpost UK that he won’t be joining the new drama.

The acclaimed HBO anthology series has already set seasons in Hawaii and Sicily, and now the third run will take the drama to Thailand.

Creator Mike White has previously said the series's new run will focus on a "satirical and funny look at death and Eastern religion and spirituality", according to Variety.

Natasha Rothwell has also been reported to be reprising her role as Belinda from the first season, similar to how Jennifer Coolidge appeared in both of the previous seasons.

Deadline reported that the series is casting 13 roles for The White Lotus season 3, among whom is a character described as a "yogi" – a yoga and meditation practitioner.

The third season of The White Lotus does not currently have a release date.

The White Lotus is available on Sky Atlantic and NOW. Find out more about how to sign up for Sky TV.
