The popular HBO series, The White Lotus, continues its production for Season 4, with significant filming operations underway at the prestigious Hôtel Martinez in Cannes. This marks a key phase of the lengthy shoot, which commenced months prior on the French Riviera. The Hôtel Martinez joins the Airelles Château de la Messardière in Saint-Tropez as a primary setting for the new season, with the Cannes hotel fully embracing its role as the 'White Lotus Cannes'.
Inside the Hôtel Martinez, sets and props are prominently displayed, creating an immersive environment for the production. The show's logo, notably different from previous seasons with its art deco font, is visible throughout the transformed lobby, signaling a stylistic evolution for the series. Golden palm trees, a replica elevator, and a check-in desk are among the set pieces, alongside various branded merchandise like caps and towels. The production is reportedly moving to Palm Beach this week before concluding its time at the Martinez.
The upcoming season boasts an ensemble cast featuring acclaimed actors such as Laura Dern, Steve Coogan, Vincent Cassel, and Ben Kingsley. Series creator Mike White is directing and writing, with David Bernad and Mark Kamine serving as executive producers. The hotel staff anticipate a boost in tourism following the season's premiere next year.
