The White Lotus Season 4 Filming Locations and Release Date

The fourth season will be located in France, with shooting anticipated to occur in Paris and Saint-Tropez. The show will allegedly employ the Château de La Messardière as its main location, abandoning the Four Seasons resorts that dominated the previous seasons.

Shooting is anticipated to occur between April and October 2026. Considering the complexity of the show’s production and post-production, the summer of 2027 appears to be a probable time for the show’s premiere.

Is Deepika Padukone joining the cast?

Speculations have been swirling about Deepika Padukone possibly joining Season 4. As of February 2026, reports suggest she may be in discussions or linked to the show. However, there has been no official confirmation from HBO or from the actress herself.

If that is the case, it would be a huge crossover point, as one of India’s biggest global stars would be a part of one of television’s most popular dramas.

For now, what is certain is that ‘The White Lotus’ is gearing up for another sun-kissed, and no doubt scandalous, getaway.
