he big reveal came for Sills’ character, French Chef Baudin, during the season finale on March 21, along with the bonus announcement that The Gilded Age has been picked up for a
second season. Sills already has the first three scripts. “I’m looking forward to reading the upcoming episodes. Being in a Julian Fellowes’ production is kind of like being in a scavenger
hunt — you don’t decide your destiny for the next year; he does,” said Sills, who grew up in Detroit and then Franklin Village. Fellowes is also the mastermind behind the Downton Abbey franchise.
