The Gilded Age, the drama series created by Julian Fellowes(Downton Abbey), will return for a fourth season on HBO and Max. Praised for its prestigious cast, sumptuous settings and social intrigue, the series continues to win over critics and viewers alike. After a Season 3 finale broadcast on August 11, 2025, audiences will soon be able to reunite with the Russell and Brook families for new power struggles in 1880s New York.
The Gilded Age will air in 2026 on HBO and Max. The exact launch date will be announced shortly.
Since its launch, The Gilded Age has won over a wide audience. Season 3 recorded a 20% increase in viewership over its predecessor, while fan engagement on social networks jumped by 60%. Described as the "best season yet" by Variety and Entertainment Weekly, the series continues to establish itself as a must-see for fans of historical drama.
As yet, no official synopsis has been revealed for the fourth season. However, HBO Executive Vice President Francesca Orsi confirmed that Julian Fellowes and his team would continue to explore the industrial and social ambitions of New York in the 1880s, with the promise of a story "full of suspense and twists and turns".
Marian Brook, orphaned by a Southern general, moves to New York to live with her rigid aunts. She discovers the splendors of the American Golden Age and finds herself confronted with a world dominated by industrial tycoons and the strict codes of high society.
Bertha Russell challenges Mrs. Astor and the Academy of Music to establish herself in New York high society, while George faces a union dispute. Marian seeks her own path, and Peggy becomes more involved in activist journalism.
After the Opera War, the Russells are in a position of strength. Bertha sets her sights on a prize that could change her family's status, while George takes a risky gamble in the railway industry. On the Brook side, Agnes turns down Ada's role as mistress of the house, and Peggy begins a new romance.
The official synopsis has yet to be revealed, but the season promises to prolong rivalries and ambitions in the heart of Gilded Age New York.
The cast includes Carrie Coon, Christine Baranski, Cynthia Nixon, Morgan Spector, Louisa Jacobson, Denée Benton, Taissa Farmiga, Harry Richardson, Blake Ritson and many others. Their performances continue to bring the series' social and family intrigues to life.
