HBO Max’s official teaser said in June 2026 that the cast was back on set and the season was coming in fall; regional announcements later set November 2, 2026, as the premiere date in Denmark and Belgium. That date should not be treated as a confirmed worldwide schedule: the official U.S. premiere date was not established in the announcements available for this article.
Has The Gilded Age been renewed for Season 4?
Yes. HBO has renewed Julian Fellowes’s period drama for a fourth season. An HBO Max teaser published June 18, 2026, showed the cast back on set and described the season as coming that fall. It confirms production was underway by then, but does not establish when filming began or when it finished.
When does Season 4 come out?
The date announced for HBO Max in Denmark and Belgium is Monday, November 2, 2026. Those are market-specific announcements, not confirmation of a single global launch date. The official U.S. date was not established in the announcements cited here, so U.S. viewers should check HBO’s local schedule rather than assume the Danish and Belgian date applies.
What is Season 4 about?
The official preview centers on the consequences of Bertha Russell’s rise in New York society. Her success has changed the rules, with repercussions for her family. Agnes van Rhijn sees an opportunity to regain her former standing; Marian is looking for a new direction; and Peggy faces a struggle for acceptance by her future in-laws. This is the season’s announced setup, not a full account of its episode plots.

Julian Fellowes is credited as creator, writer and executive producer. Salli Richardson-Whitfield is a director and executive producer, while Sonja Warfield is a writer and executive producer. Other executive producers named in the regional announcements are Gareth Neame, David Crockett, Bob Greenblatt, Kate Churchill, Davita Scarlett and Elaine Aronson; Erica Armstrong Dunbar and Holly Rymon are co-executive producers.
Where can you watch it?
The Denmark and Belgium announcements name HBO Max as the service for Season 4 in those territories. Warner Bros. Discovery’s Denmark announcement also says the first three seasons are available on HBO Max there; the Belgian announcement identifies the platform for its market. Availability and scheduling can differ by country, so viewers elsewhere should consult their local HBO or HBO Max service listing.

What to expect from the new season
The published premise points to social ambition and its personal cost rather than a disclosed season-long mystery or historical event. Bertha’s changed position puts her family in the path of new consequences, while Agnes, Marian and Peggy each face a different question of status, direction or acceptance. Beyond that setup, the official announcements do not provide episode summaries, so more specific plot claims would be premature.
