Christine Baranski stars in 'The Gilded Age,' a new historical fiction show on HBO Max.
From the writer and director of Downton Abbey comes the latest historical fiction obsession from HBO: The Gilded Age. According to the show's official synopsis from HBO, the show follows, "a period of immense economic change, of great conflict between the old ways and brand new systems, and of huge fortunes made and lost ...The Gilded Age begins in 1882 with young Marian Brook (Louisa Jacobson) 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 (Christine Baranski) and Ada Brook (Cynthia Nixon)."
The synopsis continues, "Accompanied by Peggy Scott (Denée Benton), an aspiring writer seeking a fresh start, Marian inadvertently becomes enmeshed in a social war between one of her aunts, a scion of the old money set, and her stupendously rich neighbors, a ruthless railroad tycoon and his ambitious wife, George (Morgan Spector) and Bertha Russell (Carrie Coon). Exposed to a world on the brink of the modern age, will Marian follow the established rules of society, or forge her own path?"
The Gilded Age premieres on HBO and HBO Max on Jan. 24, 2022 at 9 p.m. ET.
