The Hunger Games, Pitch Perfect and 30 Rock star Elizabeth Banks really wants to be in The White Lotus.
The actress and director is currently on the promotional trail for animated film Migration, written by The White Lotus' creator Mike White, and is hoping to get him to cast her in a future season of the HBO hit.
Appearing on Live with Kelly and Mark, Banks said that she wanted to be the unlucky person who doesn't survive the season, saying: "I want to be murdered so badly on The White Lotus. Like, kill me, please kill me. I don't know how it happens."

"You'd be so amazing on The White Lotus,' said co-host Mark Consuelos, to which Banks said: "Tell him!"
Then, host Kelly Ripa said: "Everybody knows that we're Mike White's favourite talk show. Mike White, please put your friend Elizabeth Banks in White Lotus season 3 or 4. We'll take either one."

"I'm writing you a cheque right now. I love it," Banks told Ripa.
Explaining why she wants to be on The White Lotus so much, the star said: "Who doesn't want to go hang out in a hotel with all those fun people and solve a murder mystery?"

Although not officially announced yet, season 3 of The White Lotus is said to take place in Thailand and will feature Natasha Rothwell reprising her role from the first season.
Last month, White himself said: "I'm more than eager to get going. It's going to be supersized. It's going to be longer, bigger, crazier.
"I don't know what people will think, but I am super excited, so at least for my own barometer, that's a good thing – I'm super excited about the content of the season."
He's also previously stated that he'd love to do an "all-stars" season of the show.
The White Lotus is expected to come to HBO in the US and Sky Atlantic/NOW in the UK in 2025.
