His sell-by date on that sort of thing is near. He does ask her to stay the night, but that was because he had plenty of rooms. Both Holly and I felt that hadn’t actually happened, that it was more in the minds of the kids. There’s this idea that he had this affair with Rhea, but I’m not sure that happened. He says, “Is he looking? What’s he doing? What’s the old boy doing?” They cut those lines, but it was quite good.ĭo you think Marcia will come back to Logan? They cut a wonderful bit, which quite rightly was edited out, where Matthew walks away and has a moment of panic. Tell me this: How many times did Matthew Macfadyen have to snatch that chicken from your plate and take a bite from it? Logan’s a bastard, but he’s not an indecent bastard. He says it’s hard for him to take his own shirt off with his wife! He has not attended to what was vile within his firm, with Mo Lester and all of that. These assaults, this whole cruises thing, happened many years before, but he overlooked it. His fault was that he turned a blind eye. They’ve had good times, the shareholders have. It’s very, very thought through, very carefully done.ĭo you see Logan as the malignant presence the shareholders seem to think he is? Logan’s eldest son, Connor, God bless him, is far too much of a flake! He would’ve taken the hit only for the money. He’s certainly not going to set up Siobhan to do it, because she’s in a fragile state in terms of her own marriage.

Roman has a particular vision, which Logan acknowledges. The way he questions what has just happened to him in Turkey, the way he sees through that. It’s wonderful to see him defend Gerri in that episode. There’s more to Roman than meets the eye. Roman’s not such a - excuse the expression - fuck knuckle as people make him out to be. He needs to even the odds.īut why Kendall? Why do you think Logan trusted Kendall to deliver that death sentence over Shiv or Roman? But there’s life in the old dog yet! We’ve got quite a journey now. Finally, he’s the heir apparent to Waystar Royco.” In a way, it’s a completion. The smile is him saying, “Finally, my son is stepping up to the plate, doing what he needs to do to run a business. He wanted to keep it within the family, as opposed to it coming from outside of the family. It was gratifying to play because once Logan received the death sentence, it was important to him who’d deliver the death. Tell me more about that smile in the final shot. He figured that the one chance he had was to make Kendall into the killer. Logan knew in order to sacrifice himself, he would have to do it through his family. He’s shied away from his strength, Kendall has. It was inevitable but surprising, in terms of Kendall having been so careful through the whole second season. When you found out how Succession would end this season, what was your first thought?

“I’m going between Logan Roy and LBJ!” Vulture talked to Cox about his presidential run on Broadway, the shocking twist at the end of Succession’s finale, and why the white male is past his “sell-by date.” seemed to be a no-brainer, though quite frankly, I could’ve done with a little bit more leeway,” he says with a laugh. “When you listen to these wonderful DVDs called The LBJ Tapes, as I did in my research, they were fascinating about how Johnson operated. Over the phone recently, Cox talked about the parallels between the irascible Roy patriarch and the towering good ol’ boy president. about integration, and quarrels with Bobby Kennedy over the 1968 election. The play, Robert Schenkkan’s sequel to All the Way, doesn’t have a lot of victories: In The Great Society, LBJ is embroiled in the Vietnam War, has shouting matches with Martin Luther King Jr. Johnson in The Great Society on Broadway. Succession’s second season concluded Sunday night, but the 73-year-old actor has a busy week ahead: In glasses and a South Texas drawl, he’s currently starring as Lyndon B. “Logan is really setting Kendall up to become the man he has not been,” Cox says. After the Roy family gathers on a yacht in the Mediterranean to choose their blood sacrifice, Logan Roy picks his son Kendall to take the fall for Waystar Royco’s cruise scandal - unless he actually picks him to commit patricide? It all depends on how you see Logan’s ever-so-slight grin in the episode’s final shot, as he watches Kendall declare his father a cancer to the family’s empire, implicating him in the scandal that threatens to destroy the company he built. “There was a certain inevitability to it,” Brian Cox says of Succession’s season-two finale.
