Netflix's House of Guinness Debuts Historical Drama on Irish Brewing Dynasty
Netflix's House of Guinness, created by Steven Knight, dramatizes the lives of the Guinness brewing family in 19th-century Dublin following the death of patriarch Sir Benjamin Guinness. The series portrays a Succession-like power struggle among his four children—Arthur, Edward, Anne, and Ben—each vying for control of the family empire, highlighting the blend of personal and business conflicts within the dynasty. Arthur's unconventional 'lavender marriage' to Olivia Charlotte Hedges-White is explored, revealing complexities including emotional bonds despite the marriage's unconsummated nature. Anne Guinness, excluded from the brewery business, is depicted battling a chronic degenerative illness while dedicating herself to charitable work, including founding St Patrick's nursing home. The show, which has received attention from the Guinness family descendants themselves, combines historical drama with real family scandals, tragedies, and legacies, offering a rich portrayal of Irish identity and the global impact of the Guinness brand. The cast features notable actors such as Anthony Boyle and Louis Partridge, who bring depth to their historical characters, adding to the series' compelling narrative and cultural resonance.
