Production on season four of The White Lotus has started in France, and HBO has released a tantalizing detail about the show.
As has been the case in the previous three seasons, the Mike White-created series will follow guests and staff at the luxury hotel chain where people keep getting murdered over the course of a week. That week, HBO says, will be set during the Cannes Film Festival. Whether the show uses this year’s actual festival, which runs from May 12-23, as a backdrop remains to be seen; HBO declined comment on whether the show would film at the festival.

Also of note: The season will feature two White Lotus hotels, the first time White and Co. have had more than one property as a focus. The Airelles Château de la Messardière in Saint-Tropez will be the White Lotus du Cap, and the historic Hotel Martinez on the Croisette will stand in as the White Lotus Cannes.
The season will film primarily in Cannes, Saint-Tropez and Monaco. Some filming will also take place in Paris, though HBO says the story will be focused on the Cote d’Azur.
The typically large cast for this edition of The White Lotus includes Helena Bonham Carter, Vincent Cassel, Steve Coogan, Caleb Jonte Edwards, Dylan Ennis, Corentin Fila, Ari Graynor, Marissa Long, Alexander Ludwig, Chris Messina, AJ Michalka, Kumail Nanjiani and Nadia Tereszkiewicz. Also appearing are Chloe Bennet, Sandra Bernhard, Heather Graham, Max Greenfield, Frida Gustavsson, Charlie Hall, Jarrad Paul, Rosie Perez, Ben Schnetzer and Laura Smet.
White is the creator, writer and director of The White Lotus. He executive produces with David Bernad and Mark Kamine.
