– The details of the plot are currently secret
The golden age Season 4 was Greenlit by HBO shortly before the penultimate episode of the third season was broadcast.
According to the deadline, ahead of The golden age End of season 3, the dramatic series was “adding spectators to a rate almost 50% higher than in previous seasons.” The HBO Drama Series and Drama Movies The golden age He has achieved this season.
“Transporting New York City of 1880, Julian Fellowes and the greatly talented cast and the team have created an entertainment experience of” not losing “from week to week, and we are delighted to continue exploring the great ambitions of these characters for what we promise will be a fourth exciting season.”
For not initiated, the successful HBO Max television program is basically an American version of Downton Abbey (which was also created by Fellowes), following upper class families in New York in the early nineteenth century. Old Money has been against money again since the beginning of season 1, and thanks to the continuous drama between Bertha (Carrie Coon), George (Morgan Spector) and the recent marriage of Gladys (Taissa Farmiga), that will not stop.
But things have changed in New York society, and that is potentially about to change Bertha's life forever. But we really know about The golden age Season 4 so far, and what can we expect?
Speculation of the launch window of season 4 of the golden age
When writing, a confirmed launch date for The golden age Season 4. This is not surprising to consider that season 3 is not even cold, and it is likely to spend time before we obtain something more concrete than the renewal news itself.
However, that does not mean that we cannot make an educated assumption. Season 1 premiered in January 2022, with season 2 in October 2023, and season 3 in June 2025 (although it is worth taking into account that the last two seasons were affected by the attacks WGA and SAG-AFTRA). With luck, this means that the gap between seasons 3 and 4 will not be as long as we have seen before, giving us an approximate timeline of summer 2026 to spring 2027 for new episodes.
The trailer of season 4 gold: Is there one?
As expected, there is still no trailer for season 4 and there will not be for a while (it has not yet begun to film). We will make sure to update this page as soon as one falls.
The golden season of season 4 broadcast rumors
Essentially, we are looking at the main players of season 3 that return, although nothing has been confirmed yet. Only John Adams (Elder de Claybourne) actually died in season 3, we will return to George a little later, so there is nothing that suggests that someone else will leave at this stage. Of course, an actor can always be written if he wants or save programming clashes, but suppose that will not happen.
Here are the cast members we respect to return to The golden age Season 4:
- Carrie Coon as Bertha Russell
- Phylicia Rashad as Mrs. Elizabeth Kirkland

Of course, there is an elephant in the room: will Morgan Spector return as George? The jury is currently after its unexpected departure. Other social marginalized such as Nathan Lane (Ward Mcallister) also have an interrogation sign against them.
The rumors of the plot of season 4 of the golden age
The main spoilers continue to The golden age Season 3.
Let us recapitulate what we learned in the final episodes of season 3. George's life hung in the balance in the final scene of season 3 Episode 7. He had previously won against Clay (Patrick Page) and Mr. Sage (Peter Mcrobby), returning to the transmission despite his rivalry. However, this has a price. A messenger soon visited George's office, taking a gun to his secretary before pointing directly George. The weapon shot, the screen turns black and we had no idea if it's alive or died.
In episode 8, we discovered that George was shot, but managed to do a miraculous recovery. Hurrah! Lives are saved and Russells can be the stoic force again in New York society that have always been, right? Mistaken. Once George is well enough to remember that he is being broadcast live in HBO Max, he quickly tells his wife Bertha that he is not even sure whether he loves or trusts her, leaving New York without a friendly thought between them.
Just when Gladys announces that she is pregnant in the final moments of the episode, George is apparently out of the scene. This means that Bertha got everything he had been working on, but now he has run out of a stable family unit.
With regard to Carrie Coon, Bertha will not take any of this lying. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, he explained: “It is a heartbreaking, of course. But, at the same time, their wheels are already trying how it will fix it. You know that it will not give in. It is indefatigable, of course.
Later he told Variety: “I don't know [if they’ll get back together]. It depends on what George wants. “George's revelation added,” that seems very real in long -term relationships. A person can go through a very transformative experience to which the other person has no access, and takes time to find the way back to each other. “
Watch
However, Morgan Spector was optimistic and told TVline: “Because we know how good this couple can be, it would be really fascinating to see them spend a season discovering how to be the other again.”
Obviously, Bertha and George are not all that is happening in the program. Marian and Larry are still on their way to marry, Peggy is recently promised with William (despite his mother's objections) and Oscar can go to a lavender marriage with Enid. Of course, we will also see Gladys's pregnancy.
“I hope I have not to play pregnant too long,” Taissa Farmiga told Marie Claire. I don't want to have to wear a corset with a pregnancy belt. Let's launch this, maybe Julian reads this. But I will also do what I have to do!
“I think she will be inspired more by George's raising than because of Bertha's upbringing. I think she will want to give more emotional comfort that Bertha does not give, although we know that Bertha loves her children. She loves them so much, but sometimes a child needs a hug and a soft smile, not as a firm guide hand. Sometimes she only recognizes her feelings.”
