The series comes from Steven Knight, creator of Peaky Blinders, and dramatizes the real Guinness family in the wake of Sir Benjamin Guinness's death in 1868, when control of the Dublin brewing empire passed to his children.
For its release, Netflix offered the show with Irish-language subtitles, which the platform noted as a first, reflecting the drama's deep roots in Irish history and setting.
Though set in Dublin and New York, the production filmed across England and Ireland, including locations in Cheshire, Liverpool, and Stockport as well as Dublin, and its cast features Jack Gleeson, best known as Joffrey Baratheon in Game of Thrones.
House of Guinness is a lavish historical drama created and written by Steven Knight, the mind behind Peaky Blinders, for Netflix. Set in 1868, it opens in the aftermath of the death of Sir Benjamin Guinness, the patriarch who transformed the Dublin brewery into a global empire, and traces the fortunes of the four adult children left to inherit his complicated legacy.
Anthony Boyle and Louis Partridge lead as brothers Arthur and Edward Guinness, thrust into running the business together, while Emily Fairn and Fionn O'Shea play their siblings Anne and Benjamin. James Norton co-stars as the formidable fixer Sean Rafferty, and Jack Gleeson appears as Byron Hedges, as the family navigates rivalries, secrets, romance, and the political turbulence of Ireland on the brink of change. Knight frames the brewing dynasty as a saga of power and inheritance, drawing frequent comparisons to Succession and Downton Abbey.
Premiering in September 2025, the eight-episode series became one of Netflix's most talked-about period dramas, earning warm reviews for its sweep, style, and performances and a swift renewal for a second season. Rooted in the real history of one of Ireland's most famous families, it turns the story behind the black stout into rich, character-driven drama. It streams on Netflix.
