Logan's (Brian Cox) incapacitation sets off a heated SUCCESSION debate among his children, as the board rushes to inform the media about leadership contingencies before the stock market opens. Greg (Nicholas Braun) is tasked with retrieving important items from the Roy apartment. Kendall (Jeremy Strong) makes an impassioned final plea to keep Waystar Royco in the family, and receives sobering news from longtime general counsel Gerri Kellman (J. Smith-Cameron) that dampens a moment of vindication. Written by Tony Roche; directed by Mark Mylod.
SUCCESSION was created by Oscar(R) and WGA nominee Jesse Armstrong ("In the Loop"), with the pilot written by Armstrong and directed by Oscar(R) winner Adam McKay ("The Big Short"). Jesse Armstrong, Adam McKay, Frank Rich (HBO's "Veep"), Kevin Messick, Will Ferrell, Jane Tranter (HBO's "The Night Of") and Mark Mylod (HBO's "Entourage") executive produce; Armstrong serves as showrunner.
