Why does this story matter?
In recent times, OTT content has become a staple in everyday life.

The White Lotus is running its second season and this critically acclaimed series with 10 Primetime Emmy Awards has awed viewers through and through.
The probable cast of Season 3
Season 2 had a murderers' row of new characters, including Aubrey Plaza, Theo James, Meghann Fahy, Michael Imperioli, Will Sharpe, and Beatrice Granno, among others.
