After wrapping its Saint-Tropez leg at the posh Chateau de la Messardiere, the production of Mike White’s hit anthology series “The White LotusSeason 4 has moved to Cannes, where it has taken over the Palais des Festivals for what appears to be some of the season’s most pivotal scenes.

The production has been shooting at the iconic venue since Monday, setting up camp a day after the 79th edition of the Cannes Film Festival wrapped. Filming is running through Thursday — and shooting into the wee hours. As Variety previously reported, the plot of this season revolves around two rival film teams that come to the festival with movies in competition, with one staying at the Hôtel Martinez (rebranded White Lotus Cannes) and the other at a luxurious hilltop hideaway (White Lotus du Cap — which actually filmed in Saint-Tropez).
