The White Lotus Plans France Filming Season Four

The White Lotus anthology series, created by Mike White, is set to film its fourth season in France, continuing its tradition of showcasing luxurious hotels in stunning locales. Past seasons were set in Hawaii, Sicily, and Thailand, all prominently featuring Four Seasons properties, a partnership that will continue with season four, making one of the French Four Seasons hotels the likely setting. The French Riviera is a top contender, with iconic hotels such as the Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat and Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc near Cannes, aligning with White's interest in satirizing art, fame, and the film world, especially around the Cannes Film Festival. Fans expect some storyline continuity, including the return of Belinda, a character from previous seasons, but the new season promises fresh drama in an elegant European setting. Although speculation about other potential locations like India exists, the confirmed partnership with Four Seasons narrows the possibilities to their European properties, ruling out colder climates and non-Four Seasons hotels. The new season is anticipated to blend the series' hallmark of decadent drama with the cultural and scenic richness of France.
