The story follows a love triangle among the wealthy society members of 19th-century New York.
Emma Frost -- whose credits include The White Queen and Shameless -- will be the show-runner for the series, which explores "themes of freedom, duty, identity and love in all its forms," according to the streaming service.
The Age of Innocence was previously adapted as a film three times, most recently by Martin Scorsese in 1993. Daniel Day-Lewis, Winona Ryder and Michelle Pfeiffer co-starred.
