\tThe White Lotus<\/a><\/em> cast is taking on Cannes<\/a>, even though the film festival is technically over.<\/p>\n

\tPhotos of Laura Dern<\/a>, Marissa Long and Chris Messina<\/a> have been snapped near the iconic Cannes\u2019 steps, offering eager viewers a first look at the anticipated fourth season. Shots of Charlie Hall on the carpet have also been taken, as separate images of AJ Michalka<\/a>, Alexander Ludwig and\u00a0Chloe Bennet<\/a> were also snapped. <\/p>\n

\tDern and Long\u2019s red carpet looks mirrored one another, as the former actress wore a black gown adorned with baby pink feathers, and Long stunned in a sparkly all-pink ensemble. \t<\/p>\n

\tAs The Hollywood Reporter<\/em> previously reported, the upcoming installment of The White Lotus<\/em> will be set during the Cannes Film Festival<\/a>, which ran from May 12-23 this year. The snapshots of the cast were dated to Tuesday, after the main festivities concluded.<\/p>\n

\tShooting is also taking place<\/a> at the Ch\u00e2teau de la Messardi\u00e8re in Saint-Tropez, and the Hotel Martinez on the Croisette. Filming is primarily taking place in Cannes, Saint-Tropez and Monaco, though some production will take place in Paris.<\/p>\n

\tTo the delight of Survivor<\/em> fans, Mike White\u2019s season 50 co-star Charlie Davis was also pictured on-set alongside Long. During the finale of the latest Survivor<\/em> installment, The White Lotus<\/em> creator revealed that Davis and Kamilla Karthigesu would pop up in cameo roles <\/a>i<\/a>n season four<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\tWhite has famously featured former\u00a0Survivor<\/em>\u00a0players from his first appearance on the reality show (season 37) in every installment of the beloved HBO drama. Alec Merlino joined season one not for a cameo, but in the recurring role of Hutch, a waiter and bartender at the hotel. Angelina Keeley (who White also competed against on\u00a0Survivor<\/em>\u00a050) and Kara Kay popped up in season two, while Natalie Cole and Carl Boudreaux appeared in season three. \t<\/p>\n

\tBoth Davis and Karthigesu join an already\u00a0star-studded slate<\/a>\u00a0that White has assembled for\u00a0The White Lotus<\/em>\u00a0season four. They\u2019ll be joined by the likes of Laura Dern, Kumail Nanjiani, Rosie Perez, Steve Coogan, Sandra Bernhard, Laura Smet and many more.<\/p>\n
