The Gilded Age is bringing back some familiar faces for season 4, but three actors from the hit HBO drama will not be returning to the show.
Sullivan Jones, Claybourne Elder and Thomas Cocquerel are among the stars who have left the series, each for a different reason.
Jones played newspaper owner T. Thomas Fortune from the first season. His character also had a short romance with Peggy Scott, played by Denée Benton.
He, however, appeared in only one episode of season 3 and Deadline reported that he will not return for the next season.

Elder’s exit came after his character, John Adams, was killed in season 3. John was secretly in love with Oscar van Rhijn and their story became one of the show’s emotional parts.
Elder later shared how much he loved playing the character and thanked fans for supporting him.
Cocquerel, meanwhile, played Tom Raikes, who was once engaged to Marian Brook.
Their relationship ended when he left her heartbroken in the first season. The actor did not return for season 2.
