The White Lotus Season 4?

Posey, 56, chimed in, suggesting that Kudrow needs to experience the power of the show's writers as they uncover "the complexity of people." Kudrow jokingly replied, "Well, we'll see. I'm not asked, but I'll have to let you know."

When Posey highlighted White's unpredictable storylines, the No Good Deed star admitted that she "might not be his cup of tea." However, Kudrow had some hesitation about how she would fit into the series, confessing, "I do get nervous about inhabiting things that are too dark. I try to avoid that."
