“Survivor” Season 50 stars Charlie Davis and Kamilla Karthigesu are checking into “The White Lotus” Season 4.

Mike White revealed during the “Survivor 50” finale on Wednesday that his two fellow players will be on the next season of his HBO series.

“Everybody’s invited, but there are gonna be two contestants that we’re flying out to be in the show, and they are Charlie and Kamilla,” White, 58, told Jeff Probst via video call from France, where he’s currently shooting Season 4.

The camera then cut to Davis, 28, and Karthigesu, 32, cheering backstage.

The pair also filmed a TikTok at the finale where they spoke in French, as Davis joked, “Hopefully we’ll practice our French. Thank you, Mike, we’re so excited!”

“Can’t wait to see you soon!” Karthigesu added.

White, Davis and Karthigesu were all on the same original tribe on “Survivor 50.” All three were voted out prejury.

Davis exclusively told Page Six in March that he formed a close bond with White in Fiji.

“Mike, go figure, is hilarious,” Davis said.

During his virtual appearance at the finale, White told host Jeff Probst that he wrote the next “White Lotus” season after being voted off “Survivor 50.”

“Nobody knew where I was, I didn’t have a phone” White shared. “So, just being able to write ‘White Lotus’ Season 4 was like a gift in and of itself.”

“Survivor 50” contestant Ozzy Lusth told Page Six last month he thought he ruined his chances at being on “The White Lotus” after he didn’t listen to White’s strategy advice.

“I think the chances of me getting on ‘White Lotus’ are pretty small, and honestly, it was not even that big of a deal,” Lusth said.

The 44-year-old added, “I would love to be on it because I think it would be fun. And Mike White is a f–king genius and I just love his work.”

Every season of “The White Lotus” has featured cameos from “Survivor” players.

Alec Merlino was in Season 1, Angelina Keeley and Kara Kay appeared in Season 2, and Christian Hubicki, Carl Boudreaux and Natalie Cole all made cameos in Season 3.

HBO has confirmed “The White Lotus” Season 4 will take place during the Cannes Film Festival in the French Riviera. Filming began in April.

The star-studded cast includes Laura Dern Rosie Perez, Max Greenfield, Kumail Nanjiani, Chloe Bennet, Heather Graham, Steve Coogan, AJ Michalka and Sandra Bernhard.

Helena Bonham Carter was originally in the cast but exited because of reported “creative differences” with White. She was replaced by Dern.
