HBO has set the premiere date for “The Gilded Age” Season 3, with the premium cabler also unveiling the first teaser for the period drama.
Season 3 of “The Gilded Age” will officially debut on June 22 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and streaming on Max. In the teaser, Mrs. Russell (Carrie Coon) appears to tell her daughter, Gladys (Taissa Farmiga), that “Marriage is a real opportunity.” Fans of the show will recall that Season 2 ended with Mrs. Russell promising her daughter’s hand in marriage to the Duke of Buckingham (Ben Lamb), but it seems that Gladys is none too happy about the betrothal.
Watch the full teaser below.
The official description for Season 3 states:
“Following the Opera War, the old guard is weakened and the Russells stand poised to take their place at the head of society. Bertha sets her sights on a prize that would elevate the family to unimaginable heights while George (Morgan Spector) risks everything on a gambit that could revolutionize the railroad industry — if it doesn’t ruin him first. Across the street, the Brook household is thrown into chaos as Agnes (Christine Baranski) refuses to accept Ada’s (Cynthia Nixon) new position as lady of the house. Peggy (Denée Benton) meets a handsome doctor from Newport whose family is less than enthusiastic about her career. As all of New York hastens toward the future, their ambition may come at the cost of what they truly hold dear.”
