HBO Drops 'The Gilded Age' Season 2 Teaser Trailer, Release Date Finally Announced!

Season one of HBO’s hit new series The Gilded Age finished airing back in March 2022 and fans have been eagerly waiting news of season two. We finally have something to share!

The network just announced that the eight-episode second season will premiere on HBO on Sunday, October 29 at 9pm ET/PT. The show will also be available to stream on Max.

Here’s the official logline: The American Gilded Age was a period of immense economic change, of great conflict between the old ways and brand new systems, and of huge fortunes made and lost. Season two of The Gilded Age begins on Easter morning 1883, with the news that Bertha Russell’s bid for a box at the Academy of Music has been rejected. Through the eight episodes of the season, we watch as Bertha challenges Mrs. Astor and the old system and works to not only gain a foothold in Society, but to potentially take a leading role in it. George Russell takes on his own battle with a growing union at his steel plant in Pittsburgh. In the Brook House, Marian continues her journey to find her way in the world secretly teaching at a girls school while much to everyone’s surprise Ada begins a new courtship. Of course, Agnes approves of none of it. In Brooklyn, the Scott family begins to heal from a shocking discovery, and Peggy taps into her activist spirit through her work with T. Thomas Fortune at the NY Globe.”

Carrie Coon, Christine Baranski, Cynthia Nixon, Morgan Spector, Louisa Jacobson, Denée Benton, Taissa Farmiga, and more are all back for season two. Find out who exited after season one and who has been upped to series regular!

Christine Baranski, Denee Benton, Louisa Jacobson & More Step Out For 'Gilded Age' Screening

Christine Baranski rocks a sharp suit for The Gilded Age special screening held at The Whitby Hotel in New York City on Tuesday (May 24).

The 70-year-old actress met up with her co-stars Carrie Coon, Morgan Spector, Denee Benton, Louisa Jacobson and Cynthia Nixon, and series showrunner/creator Julian Fellowes.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight recently, Cynthia and Christine opened up about being part of the period drama and learning from it as they work.

“[It's] such a fascinating part of history, and New York history in particular,” Cynthia shared. “It’s a period that has so much in common with our own and I think it’s a period that people don’t know that much about.”

Christine added that they “learn a lot about history.”

“We’re so lucky as we say to be part of this world that [Julian] creates,” she continued, noting that everyone “not only enjoyed the stories,” but they all “loved the costumes and the sets and entertaining that fairy-tale world where manners were very strict and formal.””

Season two of the HBO series just started filming. See which stars are confirmed to return here!
