Casting directors Adam Caldwell and Bernard Telsey are already working on Season 2 of their hit period drama "The Gilded Age", and say so far they are adding 2 more Tony-winners to their growing cast.
Telsey: "We just added a Tony winner last night at 11 p.m. for a major role in season two. It’s like the prerequisite. [laughs]."
Caldwell: "We have another that’s already set for seven or eight episodes so that’s definitely two Tony winners. Another two-time nominated actor…but we’re still at it. It’s still a part of the recipe of what we think works because of the talent and the experience."

I have 3 friends on the show (all principal roles), so I’ll have the scoop shortly. They begin filming mid-May. Costume fittings began 2 weeks ago. Whoo-hoo!

Personally I hope S2 is better than S1. There were so many characters and so many storylines to follow, at times it felt like they were falling all over themselves.

I am surprised there is a season 2. The reviews were not that great.

No, they weren’t. Not even from viewers who wrote on message forums. But I think HBO is in deep with this project, so they will probably stick with all the seasons they’ve contracted at this point.

It was a ratings winner and viewers enjoyed it. I enjoyed it immensely.

Viewership trumps reviews. The series started breaking records after the first episode. Same reason why AND JUST LIKE THAT was given a Season 2. Ratings also trump the social media comments and naysayers. They have zero impact.
