HBO has just unleashed the first trailer for The Gilded Age Season 4, and fans are calling it a jaw-dropping ride filled with power plays, whispered betrayals, and the kind of high-society chaos only this show can deliver.
The trailer opens with sweeping shots of New York’s elite at glittering soirées, but beneath the champagne toasts and waltz music, tension simmers. Bertha Russell appears more determined — and more secretive — than ever, hinting at a scheme that could shake the city’s social hierarchy. “Not all battles are fought in the open,” she says in one chilling line that’s already trending online.
Meanwhile, Marian Brook is seen in tearful confrontation with Larry Russell, sparking speculation about a love triangle that has been brewing since last season. In one blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment, a mysterious letter changes hands, fueling fan theories about hidden alliances and deep betrayals.
The final seconds of the trailer deliver the gut punch: a shocking twist that leaves Bertha standing alone in a dimly lit ballroom, staring at someone just off-camera — someone who might be behind it all.
Social media exploded within minutes of the drop. “If this is the trailer, I can’t imagine how wild the actual season will be,” one fan posted. Another simply wrote, “Bertha knows everything.”
The Gilded Age Season 4 promises not just opulence and grandeur, but the messiest, most thrilling chapter yet — and after this trailer, fans are counting the days until premiere night.
