HBO has officially announced that they’re dropping Serbian actor Miloš Biković from the cast of “The White Lotus” Season 3, Variety reported.
The decision came following a public outcry initiated by Ukraine’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The ministry accused Biković of supporting Russia amidst its ongoing conflict with Ukraine, sparking a controversy that led to HBO’s decision. “We have decided to part ways with Miloš Biković and the role will be recast,” HBO said in a statement, per Variety.
