In the first series, Jennifer starred as socialite Tanya McQuoid, who went to the Hawaiian resort to scatter her mother's ashes.
The Legally Blonde actress has already shared her hopes for her character in the second series to the Los Angeles Times, if she does appear in the show.
"Well, I hope she's less sad," Coolidge said. "I hope she has some love and sex and stuff. I hope she gets all kinds of, you know, male attention."
The White Lotus season 1 aired on Sky Atlantic and is available on NOW.
