HBO’s The White Lotus is just days away from its Season 1 finale on Sunday, August 15, but it’s already gearing up for a second season.

Mike White‘s drama will officially return for Season 2, HBO announced on August 10. The social satire, set at an exclusive Hawaiian resort, follows a variety of characters ranging from the guests vacationing there to the hard-working staff.

As the guests are pampered during a rejuvenating week in paradise, more complications arise, from personal secrets being outed to grief-filled excursions. The show’s stunning locale is juxtaposed with the dark workings going on within the resort.

For those looking to catch up before the Season 1 finale, you can catch up on HBO Max where every episode is currently streaming. Season 2 will leave behind the Hawaiian resort and instead follow vacationers at another White Lotus property.
