  • The White Lotus season 3 finale episode has been released
  • Mike White teased that the fourth season might not be on the coast again
  • Season 4 location scouting rumors suggest Europe could be next

The White Lotus season 3 finale has wrapped, which means the show's stay at Max has sadly ended for another chapter, and that has us wondering where the series could go next.

Following the release of the eighth and final episode, the latest retrospective video interview with the show's creator, Mike White, was posted on YouTube (see below), and it gives fans some clues about the next destination.

The anthology series has become a hit with critics and audiences alike for its murder mysteries, complex character studies, catchy theme songs, and – of course – the stunning locations each new season is set in.

Like White says in the latest video, "there's always room for more murders at The White Lotus hotels." So where could fans expect to be next in the next installment of one of the best Max shows?

"For the fourth season, I want to get a little bit out of the ‘crashing waves against rocks’ vernacular," White said in the video, which is in line with what HBO's Francesca Orsi noted earlier this year.

In an interview with Deadline, the executive said, "chances are somewhere in Europe" when it came to where The White Lotus season 4 might be heading next. Considering there are a limited number of Four Seasons Hotels in Europe, I bet this will keep internet sleuths busy over the next year or so.

What do we know so far about The White Lotus season 4?

Absolutely nothing has been confirmed by HBO or Max about what fans can expect from a fourth season of The White Lotus, but going off recent interviews that White has done, it could be a lot different from the seasons that have come before it.
