In the Season 3 finale of Succession, the Roy brothers showed solidarity, affection and empathy when Kendall (Jeremy Strong) was going through a rough patch. As the trailer for the final outcome of the series indicates, it was a mirage due to the differences between Kendall, Roman (Kieran Culkin) and Shiv (Sarah Snook) to gain control of Waystar Royco, his late father’s company.
“If we want to keep this company for ourselves, we have to go into battle with our own version of the future and with a king,” explains Kendall, who has always been of the opinion that he should be the heir, knowing the business better than anyone. . The point is that, even though his alliance with Roman stands, Logan’s most foul-mouthed son is of the opinion he should be on the throne: “Dad said it would be me.”
And, with Greg Nicholas Brown) and Tom (Matthew Macfadyen) watching what happens to the media conglomerate, Shiv is leading her own push for control of Waystar Royco as an ally of Lukas Mattson (Alexander Skarsgard), the chairman. from GoJo who wants to acquire the Roy legacy. “We will cut shit almost to the bone. Damn if we’re going to get in there. It will be disgusting”, says the Swedish businessman, with a clearly sociopathic profile.
With this ending focused on the succession to Waystar Royco as if it were a monarchical throne, HBO repeats the play of its previous mythical series in saying goodbye to programming: focusing the promotion on curiosity to see who will occupy the site. It is his new Game of Thrones, at least at a prestigious level, having already won two Emmy Awards for best drama series. La casa del dragón and The last of us, however, are the series with the most commercial profile on the channel.
And when will the conclusion of Succession be seen? It is announced in the United States for Sunday night but, in the case of Spain, it will be available on HBO Max in the morning.
