An HBO executive recently teased a storyline that wasn’t in the trailer—find out what!
Gilded Age fans, we have some good news! Season 3 of the hit historical fiction HBO show officially has a teaser trailer and a release date. After over a year and a half away, viewers are finally going to get to return to New York City in the 1880s and see what the beloved Russell and Brook families have been up to since that explosive Season 2 finale. Keep reading to discover everything you need to know about The Gilded Age Season 3, including when you can expect to stream it on Max.
What to know about ‘The Gilded Age’ Season 3
Season 3 of HBO’s The Gilded Age is expected to pick up right where Season 2 ended, with Gladys Russell (Taissa Farmiga) still on the marriage market, thanks to her mother Bertha Russell (Carrie Coon). At the end of Season 2, Bertha gives the Duke of Buckingham (Ben Lamb) permission to marry her daughter, which Gladys isn’t very happy about. This storyline will most likely be a focal point for the beginning of Season 3.
Bertha is also expected to further her career as an opera house owner in Season 3. This goal won her the opera war in the previous season and helped position her and her family as the new heads of society.
Elsewhere, Agnes Brook (Christine Baranski) is still in disbelief that Ada (Cynthia Nixon) is now the lady of the house, and George Russell (Morgan Spector) gives everything he has to try to revolutionize America’s railroad industry, which could have disastrous results for him and his family.
“I think, broadly, it’s an interesting way in which we’ve explored that era of how divorce came to the forefront in United States relationships,” HBO Executive Vice President Francesca Orsi told Deadline of Season 3 in February. “I think that there’s a conversation to be had about arranged marriages, and if it doesn’t necessarily work, what divorce looks like in that time, and what that bodes for society. And then whether you’re accepted in society or not, based on a divorce.”
As of publication, there is no news on who that divorcee will be.

‘The Gilded Age’ Season 3 cast
Along with Farmiga, Coon, Lamb, Baranski, Nixon and Spector, Audra McDonald, Harry Richardson, Amy Forsyth, LisaGay Hamilton, Louisa Jacobson, Denée Benton and Jeanne Tripplehorn are expected to appear in Season 3.
“Agnes is the powerful, smart, strong, successful one who has had everything—who got the money, who got the family out of debt, who was married, who has a son. Ada has nothing; she lives on her sister’s charity,” Nixon told The Hollywood Reporter of her and Baranski’s characters in December 2023. “She’s a quiet spinster in the house, trying not to upset the applecart. All of a sudden, not only is she on the verge of, in Agnes’ view, abandoning her, but she has grabbed the brass ring in a way that Agnes never could. She actually has found a soulmate.”
