On April 23, 2024, The Gilded Age season 3 star Carrie Coon was featured in Vanity Fair's popular podcast, Little Gold Men. Simultaneously, the renowned publication released an article summarizing the key points of the conversation, highlighting the major revelations made during the exclusive discussion.
Among the various topics discussed during the podcast, one important topic was Carrie Coon's involvement in The Gilded Age season 3 and White Lotus. With the actor expected to juggle two jobs at once, the host inquired about how she planned to handle the situation.
Coon answered positively, saying:
"Fortunately, it actually lined up pretty perfectly. I think we’re going to go into production on The Gilded Age in July. And although White Lotus will continue shooting in July, I will probably wrap out by June, just so they can get me back for Gilded Age."
She further added:
"The fact that both shows are on HBO definitely worked in my favor, because everyone’s incentivized to make sure everything works out. I’m very grateful to the people. It’s always the boots on the ground. It’s always, like, the first [assistant directors] and everybody working together on the schedule."

"Bertha and George are in a marriage that is for love, and some other things. Their ambition, clearly. They’re working in parallel, and it’s respectful. Even when they fall out personally, they keep their eye on the prize. They show up for each other. And they work it out. It’s very progressive."
