“The Gilded Age” fans have another reason to get excited.
Carrie Coon confirmed that filming on season 4 of the hit HBO drama has officially wrapped, signaling that the Emmy-winning series is one step closer to returning to television.
The actress, who plays Bertha Russell, shared the update on social media alongside a photo with co-star Morgan Spector. Unlike their lavish period costumes on the show, the pair posed in modern-day clothing.
“That’s a wrap,” Carrie captioned the post.

While HBO has not announced an official premiere date, recent “Coming Soon” previews from the network suggest season 4 is expected to debut before the end of 2026.
Production began in February, although filming was briefly delayed after a historic blizzard. Cynthia Nixon previously revealed on Instagram that the weather forced production to pause—a fitting coincidence given that New York’s famous Blizzard of 1888 plays a significant role in the city’s history during the era depicted on the series.
According to previous reporting from TV Insider, the new season is expected to jump ahead in time. While season 3 was set in 1884, season 4 is expected to begin in 1886.
Familiar Faces Return Alongside Several New Cast Members
Season 4 will bring back many of the show’s familiar stars, including Spector, Nixon, Louisa Jacobson, Denée Benton, Christine Baranski and Harry Richardson.
Several notable newcomers are also joining the cast.
Comedian Jim Gaffigan has been cast as President Grover Cleveland, while Dallas Roberts will portray Secretary of the Treasury Daniel Manning. Elizabeth Marvel joins the series as a nurse working at a housing settlement on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, and Neal Huff has been cast as oil magnate John D. Rockefeller.
Following the dramatic conclusion of season 3, Morgan previously hinted that viewers should expect the stakes to continue rising.
“The palette of the series has expanded to where somebody can almost die and we can do gory surgery on them, and the relationships that have been central to the show can maybe disintegrate; maybe some of the things that we thought were the pillars of the series are not as stable as we believed,” he told Town & Country.
With production now complete, fans are one step closer to finding out what happens next for Bertha Russell and the rest of New York’s elite when “The Gilded Age” returns to HBO.
