Paramount+ Australia today announced that Emmy®-nominated drama series, from creator Julian Fellowes (Downton Abbey), The Gilded Age will return for its eight-episode season, premiering Monday, 23 June exclusively on Paramount+.
The American Gilded Age was a period of immense economic and social change, when empires were built, but no victory came without sacrifice. Season three begins with Bertha setting her sights on a prize that would elevate her family to unimaginable heights, while George takes his biggest gamble yet: revolutionising the railroad industry.
Across the street, the Brook household is thrown into chaos as Agnes struggles to accept Ada’s new position as lady of the household, as Marian cautiously strikes up a new romance. Meanwhile, Peggy meets a well-to-do doctor from Newport, whose family is less than enthusiastic about her independent, activist spirit. As all of New York hastens toward the future, ambition and scandal collide – proving that no victory comes without sacrifice.
The Gilded Age is led by a stellar cast ensemble featuring Carrie Coon, Christine Baranski, Cynthia Nixon, Morgan Spector, Louisa Jacobson, Denée Benton, Taissa Farmiga, Harry Richardson, Blake Ritson, Ben Ahlers, Ashlie Atkinson, Dylan Baker, Kate Baldwin, Victoria Clark, John Ellison Conlee, Michael Cumpsty, Kelley Curran, Jordan Donica, Jessica Frances Dukes, Claybourne Elder, Amy Forsyth, Jack Gilpin, LisaGay Hamilton, Ward Horton, Simon Jones, Celia Keenan-Bolger, Ben Lamb, Nathan Lane, Andrea Martin, Audra McDonald, Brian Stokes Mitchell, Debra Monk, Hattie Morahan, Donna Murphy, Kristine Nielsen, Paul Alexander Nolan, Kelli O’Hara, Patrick Page, Rachel Pickup, Taylor Richardson, Douglas Sills, Bobby Steggert, Erin Wilhelmi, John Douglas Thompson, Leslie Uggams, Merritt Wever, with Bill Camp and Phylicia Rashad.
