Succession has added Alexander Skarsgård to the cast of season three. The oldest Skarsgård child and HBO regular following his dad’s example knows about family drama.
Per Variety, he will play Lukas Matsson, a successful, confrontational tech founder and CEO. He joins Brian Cox, Jeremy Strong, Kieran Culkin, Sarah Snook, Hiam Abbass, Nicholas Braun, Peter Friedman, Matthew Macfadyen, Alan Ruck, Rob Yang, and more in the Emmy Award–winning series.
Skarsgård recently won an Emmy and a Golden Globe for his role in season one of Big Little Lies, in the wake of featuring in True Blood for the network. In the last update from Waystar Royco, Kendall Roy heightened the family power battle to nuclear levels.
Lorene Scafaria of Hustlers and Cathy Yan of Birds of Prey are both directing episodes this season. Production on Succession is in progress in New York subsequent to being deferred due to the Covid pandemic a year ago.
In the event that you see Roman Roy on the streets of Manhattan doing an odd sit, you realize where to report it. (Alright, Deux Moi and us!)
