‘The White Lotus’ Nabs Early Season 4 Pickup From HBO
HBO is filling up its frequent traveler card to The White Lotus.
Four weeks ahead of the show’s third season premiere, HBO has renewed The White Lotus for a fourth installment. The Thailand-set season three is set to debut Feb. 16, two-plus years after season two.
The series’ first two seasons have won 15 Emmys — including two acting honors for Jennifer Coolidge and writing and directing wins for creator Mike White in season one — and brought in strong viewing numbers for HBO. Season two, which aired in the fall of 2022, averaged 10.1 million viewers per episode across all platforms, a 50 percent improvement on the first installment.
No details on season four are yet available.
The show’s third season will take place at the White Lotus resort chain’s Thailand location and follow guests and staff there over the course of a week. A teaser for the coming season features the now-familiar White Lotus mix of sex, danger and privileged guests searching (often unsuccessfully) for happiness.
The season three cast includes Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, Walton Goggins, Sarah Catherine Hook, Jason Isaacs, Lalisa Manobal, Michelle Monaghan, Sam Nivola, Lek Patravadi, Parker Posey, Natasha Rothwell (reprising her role from the first season), Patrick Schwarzenegger, Tayme Thapthimthong, Aimee Lou Wood, Nicholas Duvernay, Arnas Fedaravičius, Christian Friedel, Scott Glenn, Dom Hetrakul, Julian Kostov, Charlotte Le Bon, Morgana O’Reilly and Shalini Peiris.
White is the creator, writer and director of The White Lotus and executive produces with David Bernad and Mark Kamine.
