The White Lotus Season 4, the upcoming anthology in Mike White's dark comedy series on HBO, has expanded its cast with Ari Graynor and Dylan Ennis. The stars have joined the previously announced Helena Bonham Carter, Steve Coogan, Marissa Long, Alexander Ludwig, Sandra Bernhard, Chris Messina, AJ Michalka, and Caleb Jonte Edwards.

The casting for the upcoming installment is still underway, as a new roster of elite guests will check into the titular hotel for a crazy week filled with murder and mayhem.

The France-based The White Lotus Season 4, which has set the Château de La Messardière in Saint-Tropez as its filming location, is yet to begin production. After a successful Thailand-set Season 3, fans are itching to return to the popular hotel chain. However, Emmy-winning filmmaker and actor Mike White is gearing up for the premiere of Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans, CBS' reality TV show scheduled to air on February 25.

More on The White Lotus Season 4 in our story.


The White Lotus Season 4 adds Dylan Ennis and Ari Graynor to its cast

As Mike White continues to enjoy his time in the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji for Survivor 50, The White Lotus Season 4 has added two other stars to its cast. The dark-comedy anthology series has mostly followed a different ensemble each season, with only stars Jennifer Coolidge (Tanya McQuoid), Natasha Rothwell (Belinda Lindsey) and Jon Gries (Greg Hunt / "Gary") appearing in more than one season.

American actress Ari Graynor, best known for her roles in The Sopranos and I'm Dying Up Here, recently appeared as defense attorney Leslie Abramson in Netflix’s biographical crime drama series Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story. She has also starred in popular films like Celeste & Jesse Forever and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist.

The White Lotus Season 4's latest cast addition, Dylan Ennis, is a newcomer and a LAMDA graduate. Ennis will make his debut as Eli Jeffreys in Channel 4's British television series Pierre, starring David Harewood as the titular London solicitor investigating institutional corruption and racism after the death of a Black man. The project will be directed by Sarmad Masud, with a script penned by John Donnelly and playwright Roy Wiliams.

Dylan Ennis' The White Lotus Season 4 casting is quite impressive, as the show can make his career and open new gates of opportunities for the star. Mike White’s drama series The White Lotus has been widely credited with propelling emerging talents like Leo Woodall, Sam Nivola, and Patrick Schwarzenegger into the spotlight.

Since casting is underway, it might be a while before fans get to enjoy yet another vacation at the titular hotel chain. In a previous interview with TVLine, White revealed that he plans to work on the fourth season only after wrapping Survivor 50:

“I love my show, obviously, and I’m excited to go back to it, but it’s nice to think about something else, do something different, get out of my head, my little world. Survivor 50 is such a huge event for so many people I know who are involved in the show, who were in the show, and also for me. So I just felt like this was a party invite that was pretty exclusive and I was like, ‘I can’t pass this up.'”

Till then, you can always check out The White Lotus Seasons 1-3 on HBO Max for a complete dose of adventure, mystery, and laughs.
