Los Angeles, Jan 23 (NationPress) The black comedy drama series ‘The White Lotus’ is officially slated for a comeback with its 4th season after receiving the green light from HBO.

Production is targeted for 2026. The specific location for the upcoming season remains undisclosed, as does the potential return of cast members, according to reports from ‘Variety’.

However, creator and showrunner Mike White has already shared concepts with Casey Bloys, the chief of HBO and Max, as revealed in November. This early renewal comes shortly before the February 16 debut of Season 3, which takes the acclaimed ensemble dramedy to Thailand.

According to ‘Variety’, Natasha Rothwell, who portrayed spa manager Belinda Lindsey in Season 1 set in Hawaii, is the sole returning cast member this time, following Jennifer Coolidge's reprisal of her role as Tanya McQuoid in the second season.

Both preceding seasons have depicted groups of troubled vacationers who express their worst, most privileged instincts at the picturesque White Lotus resort, intertwining their stories with those of the hotel staff. Each season also featured a mysterious death.

Joining Rothwell in Thailand are Parker Posey, Walton Goggins, Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Leslie Bibb, Dom Hetrakul, Tayme Thapthimthong, Christian Friedel, Julian Kostov, Morgana O’Reilly, Lek Patravadi, Shalini Peiris, Carrie Coon, Scott Glenn, Francesca Corney, Nicholas Duvernay, Arnas Fedaravičius, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Aimee Lou Wood, Sarah Catherine Hook, Sam Nivola, and Blackpink member Lisa.

‘The White Lotus’ has earned 15 Emmys across its initial two seasons, including the award for outstanding limited series for its first season. The series is executive produced by White, David Bernad, and Mark Kamine.

Initially conceived as a 6-part limited series, it premiered on July 11, 2021, to critical acclaim and impressive ratings. The show's success prompted HBO to renew it as an anthology series.
