Succession season 3 has barely kicked off, but HBO is already planning for more. The series just officially earned a fourth season renewal.
Season 3 of Succession premiered on October 17, bringing in over 1.4 million viewers. That’s the best premiere night for any HBO series since the launch of streaming platform HBO Max.
The show explores themes of power and family dynamics through the eyes of patriarch Logan Roy (Brian Cox) and his four grown children, Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Siobhan (Sarah Snook), Roman (Kieran Culkin), and Connor (Alan Ruck). Season 2 of the family drama scored seven Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Drama Series. The show comes from creator Jesse Armstrong.
“With each season of Succession, Jesse Armstrong has continued to surpass our wildest expectations, pulling us deeper into the Roy family’s inner sanctum with indelible wit, humanity, and precision,” said Francesca Orsi, Executive Vice President of HBO Programming. “This season is undoubtedly no exception, and we couldn’t be more excited for all that’s in store in this next season ahead.”
The current season finds Logan in a perilous position, scrambling to secure familial, political, and financial alliances after he was ambushed by his rebellious son Kendall. After Kendall’s impulsive decision to expose the company’s sprawling scandal, the family is left to each contemplate their future. Tensions rise as a bitter corporate battle threatens to turn into a family civil war, with the Roy family navigating the looming question of who will take over in a post-Logan world.
New episodes of Succession air Sundays at 9pm ET/PT on HBO. You can also stream them (along with past seasons) on HBO Max.
