  "textContent": "\n\n\n\n**_The Gilded Age_ season 4** is coming soon (hopefully in 2026), and **period drama** fans are in for an absolute treat. The **season 3 finale** left off with some major relationship cliffhangers: George and Bertha's marriage is on the rocks, and while Marian and Larry are tentatively rekindling their romance, Peggy and Dr. Kirkland are engaged! I was feeling all kinds of emotions before the credits rolled on the final episode, and HBO's announcement that season 4 would see some new faces join the cast made me excited all over again.\n\n* * *\n\n## Without further ado, let's meet the new faces joining _The Gilded Age_ season 4 cast on HBO.\n\n### Who's joining Carrie Coon in The Gilded Age cast?\n\n\n\n\nThe new _The Gilded Age_ cast members include Taylor Trensch (_Your Monster_) as Oliver, James Scully (_You_) as Lee Klein, Dennis Haysbert (_Lucifer_) as Dr. Reginald Harris, Maggie Kuntz (_John Proctor is the Villain_) as Fiona Summers, Neal Huff (_Fallout_) as John D. Rockefeller, and Bonnie Milligan (_And Just Like That..._) as Mrs. Knapp Curtis.\n\nHBO also just added guest stars Jim Gaffigan (_13 Going on 30_) as Grover Cleveland, Dallas Roberts (_Insatiable_) as Daniel Manning, Elizabeth Marvel (_Fargo_) as Nurse Virginia Saville, and Andrew Burnap (_Snow White_) as Porter.\n\n### What is The Gilded Age season 4 about?\n\n\n\n\nIn _The Gilded Age_ season 4, Bertha (Carrie Coon) has to deal with the fallout of her work in season 3 — and its affect on Society and her family. Agnes van Rhijn (Christine Baranski) is looking to regain her position in Society while Marian (Louisa Jacobson) sets out for a new adventure. The recently-engaged Peggy (Denée Benton) also has a difficult task as she tries to get her future in-laws to accept her.\n\nWe also know it appears Donna Murphy teased that season 4 will open after a time jump. \"And here we go! 1st fitting for Lina Astor for Season 4 of @gildedagehbo,\" she said on **Instagram**. \"Corset & boots laced up, & happy to be stepping into 1886.\"\n\nSeason 3 opened in 1884 so it appears the beginning of the fourth season could open after our characters have quite a bit of distance from last year's cliffhanger.\n\n### When is The Gilded Age season 4 coming out?\n\n\n\n\nWe can expect the fourth season to premiere in 2026. Stay tuned for an official release date!\n\n### Has The Gilded Age season 4 started filming yet?\n\n\n\n\nAccording to the **Rhode Island Film& TV Office**, filming for _The Gilded Age_ season 4 begins in April 2026. That means we're going to get some gorgeous scenery in the new episodes, which I'm always happy about.\n\n### Who are the Van Rhijn based on in The Gilded Age?\n\n\n\n\nWhile the Russells are inspired by \"new money\" families like the Vanderbilts (the family behind Biltmore House), the van Rhijns draw inspiration from the \"old money\" families who lived off generational wealth and status. The two families are the perfect way to highlight the contrast between different social classes, expectations, and worldviews that came together in 1880s New York.\n\n**Excited for _The Gilded Age_ season 4?
