The official teaser trailer for season 3 of The Gilded Age has arrived.
HBO released the teaser for the new season on Thursday. The eight-episode third season of the period drama arrives June 22 on HBO and will also be available to stream on Max.
“Happiness is a byproduct of a well-ordered life. Our children will be among the highest-ranking people on Earth,” Carrie Coon‘s Bertha Russell says in the trailer.
“Well, when you set your mind on a thing no one can stop you,” her husband George Russell, played by Morgan Spector, says back.
Bertha responds: “I take that as a compliment.”
The Gilded Age follows the period of immense economic and social change in America when empires were built.
Season 3 picks up following the Opera War, where “the old guard is weakened and the Russells stand poised to take their place at the head of society,” according to its official logline. “Bertha sets her sights on a prize that would elevate the family to unimaginable heights while George risks everything on a gambit that could revolutionize the railroad industry — if it doesn’t ruin him first.”
Christine Baranski, Cynthia Nixon, Louisa Jacobson, Denée Benton and Taissa Farmiga also star in the third season. JulianFellowes, who created Downton Abbey, also created, writes and executive produces this series.
Marvel’s antiheroes team up in the new film Thunderbolts*.
The unconventional team consists of Bucky Barnes, Yelena Belova and the Red Guardian, played by Sebastian Stan, FlorencePugh and David Harbour, to name a few. They embark on a dangerous mission that forces them to confront the dark moments of their past.
Stan told ABC News this movie has a different vibe from the others in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
“The characters are very real,” Stan said. “They’re not perfect and they could die at any moment and they could kill each other at any moment. And they’re obviously dealing with a lot of sort of relatable things, like trauma.”
Not only are the characters more relatable, they’re also scrappier, Pugh said.
“They’re very scrappy. I think they’re all desperate,” Pugh said. “Everything just feels like they’re all on the brink of having a breakdown. And it’s great. It’s just that everybody’s on this boiling level of who’s gonna pop off first.”
Harbour and Pugh both starred in the 2021 film Black Widow, where they played the undercover fake father and sister of ScarlettJohansson‘s Natasha Romanoff. While Pugh said she doesn’t see Harbour as a father figure in real life, she thinks they have the same dedication to doing justice to their characters.
“I’m just so grateful that we both had the same amount of passion to make sure that these characters are going in the right direction together,” Pugh said.
Thunderbolts* is available to watch in movie theaters everywhere on Friday.
Disney is the parent company of Marvel and ABC News.
Aimee Lou Wood has nothing but good things to say about Walton Goggins.
The actress, who starred as Chelsea, girlfriend of Goggins’ character Rick, on season 3 of The White Lotus, walked the red carpet of the 2025 Met Gala on Monday.
While speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Wood said it was great to have a mini White Lotus reunion at the event, which was also attended by co-stars Goggins, Patrick Schwarzenegger and Lisa from Blackpink.
“It’s so lovely, I actually thought more of us would be here, but everyone’s busy. It’s really lovely, and we came together in the car. It’s perfect,” Wood said.
There has been speculation over whether Wood and Goggins had a falling out after the latter refused to answer questions about Wood in an interview with The Times published on May 1.
Prior to that interview, there had been speculation about the status of their relationship. Goggins shared a photo tribute to Wood in August 2024, where he called her “the brightest light in every room.” As of May 2025, the actors no longer follow each other on Instagram.
Goggins is set to host Saturday Night Live on May 10. Wood was asked if she plans to make an appearance on the program, which would be notable after she publicly spoke out against the show’s parody of The White Lotus that poked fun at her appearance.
“I couldn’t say, but also, I’m not doing that,” Wood said, adding that “it’d be fun” if she could appear.
“I loved working with Walton, it was the best thing ever,” Wood said. “Obviously, he’s going to be incredible doing SNL. It’s the perfect thing for him to do, he’s going to be hilarious. I’m so excited to see it.”
