    Trouble Brews Among Family Heirs in ‘House of Guinness’ Trailer

    Published on

    Raise a pint to another sibling brawl after Succession, as the four adult children of patriarch Sir Benjamin Guinness battle for their place in the family dynasty after the brewery mogul’s death in 1868.

    The teaser for the historical Netflix drama set in 19th-century New York and Dublin and from Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight sees the moneyed family heirs — Arthur, Edward, Anne and Ben — left doubly grief-stricken by the impact of their father’s will.

    Benjamin Guinness, played by Fionn O’Shea, and sister Anne Plunket Guinness (Emily Fairn) are denied an inheritance. That ushers in a toxic family feud as the two eldest sons — Anthony Boyle, who plays Arthur Guinness, and Louis Partridge as Edward Guinness — are given stewardship of the Irish brewery and its black gold.

    “The death of your father has served to poke a stick in a hornet’s nest,” Arthur Guinness is told at one point in the trailer as the family drama plays out against the backdrop of the fight for Irish independence and other generational struggles.

    The ensemble cast for the Netflix series to bow on Sept. 25 includes Dervla Kirwan (True Detective: Night Country), Jack Gleeson (Game of Thrones), Niamh McCormack (Everything Now), Danielle Galligan (Shadow and Bone), Ann Skelly (The Nevers), Seamus O’Hara (Blue Lights), Michael McElhatton (Game of Thrones), David Wilmot (Station Eleven), Michael Colgan (Say Nothing), Jessica Reynolds (Kneecap), Hilda Fay (The Woman in the Wall) and Elizabeth Dulau (Andor).

    The Kudos and Nebulastar series will debut with eight one-hour episodes, from creator and writer Knight, who also executive produces along with Karen Wilson, Elinor Day, Martin Haines, Tom Shankland and Ivana Lowell.

    Cahal Bannon and Howard Burch are producers.
