“It will be like a death” – Cine3.com

In recent days, the creator and showrunner of Succession, Jesse Armstrongconfirmed that after five years of many successes and awards, the fourth season – which will be released in HBO and in HBO Max on March 26, 2023– will be the final season of the acclaimed drama multiple Emmy Award winner.

Waiting to find out what Armstrong and his team of creatives have worked out to conclude the stories of the show, one of its protagonists, Jeremy Strongin charge of interpreting the role as Kendall Roy, explains to GQ his feelings about Succession’s goodbye:

“It will feel like a death, in a way.” But unlike some of his co-stars, Mr. Mrong envy “that freedom to just shoot each other from different guns. Sometimes Kendall feels like the same cannon over and over again.”

“When I was younger, I saw the future in my sights. I don’t feel that anymore. There is a feeling of ‘Now what?’ for which I do not have the answer“.

Armstrong announced the end of Succession in an interview with The New Yorker, to whom he explained the following:

“There is a promise in the title of ‘Succession’. I never thought this could last forever. The ending has always been on my mind. Since Season 2, I’ve been trying to think: Is it next, or is it next, or is it next?

Armstrong admitted that he was “deeply conflicted” about ending the series after four seasons, a decision that HBO allowed him to make.

“It’s been a tough decision because the collaborations, with the cast, with my fellow writers, with [el compositor] Nick Britell and Mark Mylod and the other directors, they’ve been so good.”

And is this the final ending, or can we expect to see more of the world of the Roys later on? Armstrong does not rule out returning to “another part of this world,” with “allied characters, or some of the same characters.”

“Maybe there’s something else that can be done that builds on the good of the way we’ve worked on this.”, said. “So that’s another true feeling.”
