About The Gilded Age

The Gilded Age is an HBO period drama that premiered in 2022, created by Downton Abbey's Julian Fellowes. Set in 1880s New York, it dramatizes the clash between entrenched old-money aristocracy and brash new-money industrialists, centering on the ferociously ambitious Bertha Russell as she storms the gates of a society that disdains her, and the old guard, led by Agnes van Rhijn, determined to keep her out.

Lavish and soapy, the series revels in opulent costumes, social warfare, and the manners and machinations of a changing America, seen partly through the eyes of young newcomer Marian Brook. It is a sumptuous, addictive portrait of wealth and status.

Led by Carrie Coon and Christine Baranski, The Gilded Age is grand, witty period spectacle.
