Due to the favored season, the Season 4 renewal was introduced after Episode 6 (of eight) aired, guaranteeing that followers of the Julian Fellowes drama will see their favourite characters return. It was a two-year wait between Seasons 2 and three, so we’re formally in a protracted stretch earlier than the Russell household finale cliffhanger is addressed.
Right here, we’re compiling the entire newest information about The Gilded Age Season 4. We’ll proceed to share updates as they grow to be out there.
When does The Gilded Age Season 4 premiere?
Given the August 2025 finale date, it’s far too quickly to know when The Gilded Age will return. Season 1 premiered in January 2022, with Season 2 popping out in October 2023. Season 3 got here out in June 2025. Provided that launch historical past, followers can moderately hope for one thing sooner, however they’d be smart to organize for a 2027 launch.
The Gilded Age Season 2 possible would have come out earlier in 2023 had it not been for the Hollywood strikes that 12 months. In actual fact, its whole run on HBO has had distinctive filming circumstances. It filmed Season 1 underneath strict COVID-19 security parameters, after which what would’ve been its promotional season for Season 2 was canceled by the Hollywood strikes in 2023. It wasn’t till halfway by way of Season 2, when the actors strike ended, that the solid may do any interviews in regards to the episodes. Season 3 marked the primary time the solid and crew may have a good time its launch with an official premiere, but it surely was a full two years after the debut of the second season.

Claybourne Elder will most definitely not be again in Season 4 following the loss of life of his character, John Adams within the remaining moments of Episode 6. We’d wager that Patrick Web page will probably be again as Clay, however that may very well be a really contentious character, as he’s suspected for hiring the hitman who shot George within the penultimate episode.
What occurs in The Gilded Age Season 4?
The largest burning query on each fan’s thoughts is that if George and Bertha Russell are actually accomplished for good. George’s near-death expertise made him rethink his life solely. Whereas it appeared on the Newport Ball that that meant he was going to reconcile his grievances with Bertha about Gladys’ (Farmiga) organized marriage, the finale’s final seconds shocked viewers by having George go away Bertha.
They’re not divorced but, but it surely’s extra potential than ever. And the couple on which the characters are loosely primarily based, William and Alva Vanderbilt, famously acquired divorced after marrying their daughter, Consuelo, off to a British duke. Sound acquainted? It will be a crying disgrace for one in all TV’s finest and hottest energy {couples} to fall, however the fallout could be scrumptious drama. Bertha, within the meantime, is making an attempt to make life higher for divorced ladies.
We’re nonetheless ready to know if Peggy (Benton) mentioned sure to William’s (Donica) wistfully romantic proposal as properly. She was crying tears of pleasure when he acquired down on one knee, so we think about she mentioned sure, however we didn’t see her reply so their engagement stays unconfirmed for now. Larry (Richardson) and Marian (Jacobson) are additionally type of again collectively however not but re-engaged. Gladys and Hector expect their first child, so hopefully that’s a really completely happy story and nothing near the trauma of Woman Sybil’s (Jessica Brown Findlay) first little one in Fellowes’ Downton Abbey. (May a Gilded Age and Downton Abbey crossover occur? We ponder the chances right here.) The excellent news on that entrance: Consuelo Vanderbilt lived to 88, so in the event that they’re going to proceed molding Gladys after her, that’s an excellent signal.
When does The Gilded Age Season 4 happen?
The Gilded Age Seasons 1 and a pair of had been set in 1882. The Gilded Age Season 3 was set in March 1883 originally. With out a plot description for Season 4, we are able to’t say when precisely Season 4 will happen. However the present has solely accomplished brief time jumps up to now, primarily solely leaping forward a few months between seasons, so we’d predict solely a few months distinction at most between Seasons 3 and 4.
Alternatively, we’d like to see the brand new episodes decide up instantly after that gut-wrenching remaining shot of the season, when Bertha wept in a windowsill whereas watching George journey away.
