Already a hit among fans and critics alike, HBO has announced today that it plans to move forward with a second season of The Gilded Age. The series landed on the network less than a month ago, and has already brought in heaps of praise from critics. NPR hailed the show as “brilliantly cast and beautifully shot” adding to its bingeability by saying it is both “addicting and juicy.
Executive Vice President of HBO Programming, Francesca Orsi commented enthusiastically on the renewal announcement saying that the creative team behind the series has “thoroughly captivated” audiences as they weave the “tale of late 19th century New York City extravagance.” She went on to add that the network is beyond thrilled to team up with the talented group once again and “embark on a season two journey.
Along with creating and writing the series, Fellowes also executive produced with directors Michael Engler and Salli Richardson-Whitfield. Rounding out the executive production team were Gareth Neame, David Crockett, and Bob Greenblatt. Sonja Warfield also wrote on the series and served as co-executive producer alongside Erica Dunbar.
The American Gilded Age was a period of immense economic change, of great conflict between the old ways and brand new systems, and of huge fortunes made and lost. Against the backdrop of this transformation, HBO’s The Gilded Age begins in 1882 with young Marian Brook moving from rural Pennsylvania to New York City after the death of her father to live with her thoroughly old money aunts Agnes van Rhijn and Ada Brook .
