Camp ( Presumed Innocent ) will star as JP Morgan, the world-famous investment banker who finds himself at odds with George Russell (Morgan Spector) over the future of the railroad industry. Martin ( Evil ) will play Madame Dashkova, a medium who claims to be able to commune with the dead. Wever ( Unbelievable ) will take on Monica O’Brien, Bertha Russell’s (Carrie Coon) estranged sister who appears at a crucial time for the family.

“The American Gilded Age was a period of immense economic and social change, when huge fortunes were made and lost overnight,” reads the season’s official description. “With the old guard officially deposed, New York society finds itself turned upside down, and all must get their house in order. But even those at the helm of this new era may find that change comes at a cost.”

Other new cast members joining the above trio are Leslie Uggams ( Roots ) as Mrs. Ernestine Brown, Elizabeth Kirkland’s friend and a member of the Black elite community in Newport; Lisagay Hamilton ( Winning Time ) as Frances Ellen Watkins Harper , the famed Black suffragist who inspires Peggy (Denée Benton) to become involved in her cause; Paul Alexander Nolan as Alfred Merrick, a dashing, wealthy New York businessman, who has all the hallmarks of the old money set — elegance, refinement and sophistication; Hattie Morahan ( Fool Me Once ) as Lady Sarah Vere, Sister to the Duke of Buckingham (Ben Lamb); and Jessica Frances Dukes ( Ozark ) as Athena Trumbo, Dorothy’s (Audra McDonald) beloved first cousin and a part of an elite enclave of Black residents of Newport, R.I.

Back in June, Phylicia Rashad joined the series as Mrs. Elizabeth Kirkland, who’s described as “a woman from a prominent family in Newport with ties dating back to the American Revolution. She has high standards (and an occasionally sharp tongue). She is unwilling to compromise the standards and expectations of her elite and exclusive social group — particularly when it comes to her son.”

The Gilded Age wrapped its second season in December 2023. A premiere date for Season 3 (which is currently in production) has not yet been announced.
