Summary
- Australian actor Harry Richardson stars in 'The Gilded Age'.
- He previously appeared in Hulu's cancelled series 'Not Suitable for Work'.
- Richardson also had a role in the acclaimed film 'Dunkirk'.
Australian actor Harry Richardson is gaining significant recognition for his role as Larry Russell in the popular HBO Max series "The Gilded Age," currently in its fourth season. This breakout performance is a major milestone in his career, which began in 2015. His presence on "The Gilded Age" may feel familiar to some viewers due to his prior role in the Mindy Kaling-created rom-com "Not Suitable for Work."
"Not Suitable for Work," which premiered in June 2026, saw Richardson portraying movie star Austin Blanchett. The series was unfortunately canceled by Hulu after just one season. Beyond these roles, Richardson's television credits include a substantial 26-episode arc in the BBC drama "Poldark," a guest spot on "Total Control," and the Prime Video miniseries "Doctor Thorne."
While primarily known for his television work, Richardson also contributed to major motion pictures. His role as a private in Christopher Nolan's "Dunkirk" was his first significant film appearance. Reflecting on the experience in a 2018 interview, he described the scale of the production as "crazy" and a "teaser to a dream."
