‘The White Lotus’ Season 4 Officially Gets First Look From HBO

Oftentimes, corporations become known for the signature service they deliver, making them instantly recognizable to their target audience. For instance, within the sphere of movie entertainment and streaming, Apple TV is revered as being the home to prestige sci-fi shows, with titles like Silo and Murderbot springing to mind. HBO, on the other hand, has leaned towards being recognized as a premium television heavyweight. Game of Thrones, one of HBO’s most significant investments, paid off considerably for a long time, and in its spin-offs like A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and House of the Dragon, success is still being found.

Beyond the fantasy genre, however, the streaming service has other avenues via which prestige television is brought to its audiences. Chief among them is The White Lotus, which is written and directed by Mike White with several big stars gracing his call sheet over the years. The first season of the anthology series premiered back in 2021 and has since established itself as being of top-tier value to the streaming service. White’s prestige show has been running for three seasons now, and the Emmy-winning HBO smash hit series is hurtling towards a fourth season and the wait is gradually coming to an end.

The highly anticipated next installment has been filming in France since April, and it will be the first in series history to be set in France. As production enters its final stretch, Deadline has revealed a unique takeover by The White Lotus. Season 4 will feature two hotels in the new season: Airelles Château de la Messardière in Saint-Tropez as the White Lotus du Cap and the Hôtel Martinez as the White Lotus Cannes. According to new images from Deadline, filming has seen Hôtel Martinez transformed, with many set pieces and props still displayed in the lobby and bearing The White Lotus logo, which also appears to have received a makeover as pictured in the carousel below. “This is a fragile movie set, please do not touch or move any set elements,” reads the signs that block off sets at the Martinez.

Who Has Featured on ‘The White Lotus’ Over the Years?

Since its premiere, White’s anthology series has fostered the establishment of rising stars while cementing the legacy of previously established ones. In Season 1, for instance, The White Lotus featured the likes of Sydney Sweeney, Murray Bartlett, Lukas Gage and Jennifer Coolidge. By the time Season 2 rolled around, Coolidge had returned with Aubrey Plaza and Theo James, among others. The show simply wasn’t slowing down, with Season 3 bringing on Aimee Lou Wood, The Gilded Age‘s Carrie Coon, Leslie Bibb, Fallout‘s Walton Goggins, Michelle Monaghan, Jason Isaacs, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Parker Posey, among others. With Season 4 in the works, White is assembling yet another stellar guest list which features Sandra Bernhard, Steve Coogan, Caleb Jonte Edwards, Ari Graynor, Marissa Long, Alexander Ludwig, Chris Messina, Laura Dern, Vincent Cassel, among others.

The White Lotus Season 4 does not have a specific release date yet, but is officially scheduled to premiere in the first half of 2027 on HBO Max. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
