HBO’s The Gilded Age is packed full of TV and Broadway stars. The Emmy-winning series, which first premiered in 2022, returns this fall, and with it come new characters made for the show and plucked from history books.

Here, we’ve compiled a gallery showing the stars of the period drama in and out of costume for you to see the transformations the costume, hair, and makeup departments deliver.

In The Gilded Age Season 4, “Bertha Russell changed Society at a cost. Now, her family must reckon with the consequences as Agnes van Rhijn seizes an opportunity to regain her position,” HBO says. “Meanwhile, Marian forges a new path for herself, and Peggy works to be accepted by her future in-laws. In this new era, you must be careful what you wish for.”

The Gilded Age stars Christine Baranski, Cynthia Nixon, Carrie Coon, Morgan Spector, Louisa Jacobson, Denée Benton, Taissa Farmiga, Harry Richardson, Kelli O’Hara, Donna Murphy, Audra McDonald, John Douglas Thompson, Jordan Donica, Phylicia Rashad, Brian Stokes Mitchell, Blake Ritson, Ben Ahlers, Kelley Curran, Jack Gilpin, Simon Jones, Debra Monk, Celia Keenan-Bolger, Taylor Richardson, Claybourne Elder, and Patrick Page.

The Pitt‘s Lucas Iverson returns in Season 4, and new cast members are Taylor Trensch, James Scully, Dennis Haysbert, Maggie Kuntz, Neal Huff, and Bonnie Milligan.
