It's time to scratch that Downton Abbey itch with a new show from creator Julian Fellowes. HBO released a teaser for Fellowes' The Gilded Age on HBO, starring Christine Baranski, Cynthia Nixon, and more.
Set in late 19th-century New York, the show follows a young woman (Louisa Jacobson) who moves in with her aunts (Baranski and Nixon). While seeking a respite from grieving her father, she finds social struggles, wealth disparities, and class warfare — the kind only this fascinating era of American history can provide.
The nine-episode series is co-written by Sonja Warfield and directed by Michael Engler and Salli Richardson-Whitfield. It also stars Carrie Coon, Morgan Spector, Denée Benton, Taissa Farmiga, Blake Ritson, Simon Jones, Harry Richardson, Thomas Cocquerel, Jack Gilpin, and more.
The Gilded Age premieres on HBO Jan. 24.
