The White Lotus – Season 4 Renewal Confirmed!
Confirmed: January 2025
The White Lotus was renewed for a fourth season. The show was renewed amid season three’s massive success at the network.
A social satire set at exclusive resorts, the series follows the vacations of various hotel guests over the span of a week as they relax and rejuvenate in paradise. But with each passing day, a darker complexity emerges in these picture-perfect travelers, the hotel’s cheerful employees, and the idyllic locale itself.
The Franchise – Canceled
Announced: January 2025
The Franchise was the first TV show canceled by HBO and HBO Max in 2025. The show only had one season.
HBO confirmed the cancellation news, saying in a press release, “We’re so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with the tremendously talented team behind The Franchise, especially Sam Mendes, Jon Brown, Armando Iannucci, and this hilarious ensemble of actors. While we won’t be moving forward with another season, we look forward to collaborating with all of them in the future.”
The series followed the crew of an unloved franchise movie fighting for their place in a savage and unruly cinematic universe. The comedy series shines a light on the secret chaos inside the world of superhero moviemaking, to ask the question — how exactly does the cinematic sausage get made? Because every f*ck-up has an origin story.
