Creator Julian Fellowes has said that he hopes to have a younger version of the Countess of Grantham, originally played by Elizabeth McGovern in Downton Abbey (2010), appear in the show at some point.
In a January 2022 New York Times article, Dave Itzkoff reports that by the end of the shoot Carrie Coon (who plays Bertha Russell) was eight months pregnant. Coon said, "There was a point where I couldn't wear a corset anymore. You'll see some cleverly-timed horses and some hand acting to hide my stomach."
Creator Julian Fellowes revealed on HBO's official podcast for the show that George Russell is based on real-life robber-baron and railroad financier Jay Gould. Like the Russels, the Goulds struggled to gain acceptance among New York's old money elite, especially by de facto leader Mrs. Astor.
In his January 2022 New York Times article "'The Gilded Age' Finally Arrives on HBO," Dave Itzkoff reported that the long filming hiatus caused by the COVID-19 pandemic allowed actress Denée Benton (who plays Peggy Scott) "to seek refinements of [her role] to better reflect [her] understanding of history. Benton said she urged the Gilded Age creative team to provide more ways to show that there were Black people like her character, Peggy, who lived in their own affluent and educated communities. 'The heart and the intention around Peggy have stayed the same,' said Benton, whose character is an aspiring writer. 'But it was like, do we have an opportunity here? Why does Peggy have to work for a white publishing office? There were amazing Black newspapers at that time. Did we think about that?' Benton said that a collaborative process led to changes in characters and story lines, although it 'certainly did not happen overnight.' She added, 'I'm sure there were some clenched butt cheeks and some eye rolls, but we made it through.' [Casey] Bloys, the HBO executive, said, 'We always try to make sure that a period piece feels authentic.' He added that in the case of the Peggy character, 'We really wanted to make sure that she was fully realized and historically accurate.'"
As a historical period, the Gilded Age spanned, roughly, from 1865 (the end of the Civil War) or 1870 to about 1900. The term comes from the title of an 1873 novel by Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner, "The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today," but it was not used to describe the era until historians and progressive reformers adopted it in the 1920s as a way to disparage what they saw as the period's contradictions and hypocrisies: its simultaneous hyperbolic excesses and extreme poverty.
