HBO has booked two more guests for the fourth season of The White Lotus.
Steve Coogan and Caleb Jonte Edwards have joined the show for the coming season, which is set to film in France. As with most things related to The White Lotus, details of who they’ll be playing are being kept quiet. Series creator Mike White is currently writing the new season.
Coogan and Edwards are the third and fourth members of the cast for the coming season, joining Alexander Ludwig and AJ Michalka.
Coogan is best known for his long-running Alan Partridge character; he’s played the hapless British TV presenter in several series dating back to the 1990s. He’s also a two-time Oscar nominee as a writer and producer of Philomena; his other credits include The Trip films and TV series with Rob Brydon, In the Loop and voice work in the Despicable Me movies.
Edwards is a relative newcomer to the business; he appeared in an episode of the Australian drama series Black Snow last year and a short film called The Man and the Woman.
HBO confirmed in November that season four of The White Lotus will take place in France. A hotel in Saint-Tropez, the Château de la Messardière, will be the primary location for the season, with shooting in other parts of France also likely.
White writes and directs The White Lotus and executive produces with David Bernad and Mark Kamine.
Coogan is repped by CAA and Independent Talent Group. Edwards is repped by Echo Lake Entertainment and Eaton Management.
