The White Lotus Season 4 has a budget of $120 million — why Helena Bonham Carter wasn’t “boisterous” enough for Mike White

The HBO series’ fourth season is “not the first time the Cannes Film Festival has been filmed — Call My Agent, for instance, shot inside the Palais des Festivals. But it’s never been leveraged so grandly,” reports Variety’s Ella Keslassy. “With a budget of around $120 million, Season 4 is shaping up to be the most ambitious shoot ever to use the festival as its central setting. Production will span roughly seven months and take place across the French Riviera and Paris, with interiors shot at the Château de la Messardière (rebranded White Lotus du Cap), the Hôtel Martinez (White Lotus Cannes) and the Hôtel Lutetia in Paris. Despite its scale, The White Lotus is keeping a low profile. One might expect the south of France to be turned upside down by the HBO production. But while Saint-Tropez’s Château de la Messardière has been fully closed, its 32 acres of gardens sealed off from the public, the gated entrance is guarded discreetly by two production workers in street clothes; the crew vehicles are parked at a nearby beach.” According to Keslassy, White had signed on Helena Bonham Carter to play “a washed-out star who is chasing a comeback.” But after nearly a week of production, Carter departed “over ‘creative differences’; involving White’s demand for a boisterous performance; within days, she was replaced by Laura Dern. (Dern is playing a character White is developing who will fill a similar place within the ensemble. Given Dern and White’s collaborations on the TV series Enlightened and the film Year of the Dog, it may be a more comfortable fit.)”
