Christine Baranski Talks ‘The Gilded Age’ Season 3 & Reveals Details Of ‘Nine Perfect Strangers’ Season 2 In The Austrian Alps
As Agnes van Rhijn in The Gilded Age, Christine Baranski embodies a New York matriarch bound by stringent class division and societal contest—something the show’s creator Julian Fellowes so famously explored within the British aristocracy in Downton Abbey. Baranski conveys both generations of painful suppression and a wry humor as Van Rhijn—a woman upholding a family legacy while supporting her sister ( Cynthia Nixon), niece (Louisa Jacobson) and son (Blake Ritson). It was a lot of exposition, but I think the reason Season 2 was so exciting to people is they were already invested in these characters, they knew the world of The Gilded Age and they were ready to go with the high drama.
