After ten years in prison, Edmond loses all hope of salvation, but suddenly meets another prisoner - Abbe Faria, who had been digging an escape tunnel for many years, but mistakenly ended up in Dantes' cell. The new comrade tells Edmond about the treasures that are located outside the castle, but soon dies, and Dantes escapes alone. Now he is the mysterious Count of Monte Cristo, who intends to take revenge on those who destroyed his life.

SEE THE INCREDIBLE SPLENDOUR IN THE NEW TRAILER FOR WILDLY LAVISH SECOND SEASON OF HBO'S 19TH CENTURY COSTUME DRAMA THE GILDED AGE

  GILDED AGE SEASON TWO 
GETS A BRAND NEW TRAILER
Gilded Age returns October 29th
Well, it has been an extremely long wait, but HBO is finally bringing us the second season of Julian Fellowes' wonderful and highly entertaining costume drama GILDED AGE which will land October 29th with eight new episodes set again during the Gilded Age in America, a period of immense economic change, of great conflict between the old ways and brand new systems and of fortunes made and lost. Over in the United Kingdom, the new season will start a day later, October 30th on Sky Atlantic! Today you can check out the insanely gorgeous and super glitzy costumes in the brand new trailer that has been released today filled with lavish gowns and even more lavish sets, it is splendour all around:
 
THE SECOND SEASON
 begins on Easter morning 1883, with the news that Bertha Russell’s (Carrie Coon) bid for a box at the Academy of Music has been rejected. Throughout the season, Bertha challenges Mrs. Astor (Donna Murphy) and the old system and works to not only gain a foothold in Society but to potentially take a leading role in it. George Russell (Morgan Spector) takes on his own battle with a growing union at his steel plant in Pittsburgh. In the Brook House, Marian (Louisa Jacobson) continues her journey to find her way in the world secretly teaching at a girls’ school while much to everyone’s surprise Ada (Cynthia Nixon) begins a new courtship. Of course, Agnes (Christine Baranski) approves of none of it. In Brooklyn, the Scott family begins to heal from a shocking discovery, and Peggy (DenĂ©e Benton) taps into her activist spirit through her work with T. Thomas Fortune at the NY Globe. You can check out who has joined the second season cast in our previous post. Harry Richardson, Blake Ritson, Nathan Lane all return.
