Succession Plot and Cast

It’s pretty obvious that there’s only one thing for it with Succession season four: all-out war among the family and business unit alike.

With Logan selling out his family and agreeing to a buyout of Waystar Royco, a major piece of what keeps him going will no longer be there. So what will he do instead? Likewise, what will become of Shiv, Roman and Kendall now they’ve been left with nothing but each other to get them through this rough patch in their lives?

All of the key players have been let down by their most significant other. With Shiv, her beaten-down husband Tom has finally bitten back and left her dead in the water. For Roman, the only person he seemingly confided in, Gerri, has turned her back on him. Kendall is hanging on to his mental health by a very, very thin thread. Season 4 will see the siblings have to come up with their next power play before it’s too late. Either way, it’s going to be messy.

The main cast includes Brian Cox as Logan Roy, Jeremy Strong as Kendall Roy, Sarah Snook as Shiv Roy, Kieran Culkin as Roman Roy, Alan Ruck as Connor Roy, Matthew Macfadyen as Tom Wambsgans, Nicholas Braun as Greg Hirsch aka Cousin Greg and J. Smith-Cameron as Gerri Kellman.

The recurring guest stars like Alexander Skarsgård, Justine Lupe, Arian Moayed, and other familiar faces may return in the new season.

Succession Season 4 Release Date

Thankfully, we know that Succession is at least returning, with Season 4 being confirmed days before the launch of Season 3. The number of seasons are also not confirmed as it has been different in every season.

Unfortunately, a release date is not yet slated, and it is believed that filming is yet to even commence. As a result, we cannot expect it until late 2022.
