House of Guinness (2025)

House of Guinness is a historical drama series created by Steven Knight (known for Peaky Blinders), which tells the story of the power struggle within the legendary Irish brewing dynasty, the Guinness family, in the 1860s. After the death of the patriarch, Sir Benjamin Lee Guinness, his four children — Arthur, Edward, Anne, and Benjamin Jr. — find themselves embroiled in toxic rivalry, political intrigue, and family secrets as they try to maintain control of the brewery. The series combines elements of drama, biography, and history, creating a tense atmosphere in the style of Succession against the backdrop of turbulent 19th-century Dublin. Plot:

The action takes place in Dublin in 1868. After the funeral of Sir Benjamin Lee Guinness, his children learn the contents of the will, which leaves two of them with everything and two with nothing. Arthur Guinness (Anthony Boyle) tries to start a political career, while Edward (Louis Partridge) struggles with his own desires for the good of the family. Meanwhile, unrest is brewing on the streets of Dublin, and the return of a familiar face on the eve of the elections adds new threats. Each of the characters hides dark secrets that could destroy not only their personal lives but also the Guinness empire itself. Cast:
