This decision is very much in keeping with the spirit of the show.
Everyone was surprised by the news that the succession would end after the fourth season. It’s rare to see a show this popular ending its story at its climax rather than dragging it out for several more seasons than necessary.
With all the teaser trailers, teasers, and funny posters, the season is expected to be no worse than the previous one.
Fans were saddened by the inevitable farewell to their favorite characters and relieved that the story wouldn’t get boring.
It’s not uncommon for fans to receive news like this unexpectedly, but it doesn’t happen often for cast members. However, Succession Inc. handled the cancellation in a way that seems very honest to the show: with a clear head and a cold heart.
In her interview with Los Angeles TimesHowever, Sarah Snoke, who portrays Chef in the series, said she was not informed of the show’s end until the final schedule reading in January.
“I felt a huge sense of loss, disappointment, and sadness. It was nice to know that at the beginning of the season, but I also understand that I wasn’t told until the end because there was still the possibility that maybe this wasn’t going to be the end,” the actress said, later noting that She wasn’t the only one in the cast who got the news so late.
Snook’s sentiments are understandable, especially given the amount of work it and the rest of the cast have put in to bring the show to life on screen.
Still, if we think there was a sense of uncertainty and at least a little bit of hope that the Caliphate might have a future, it’s good that the production gave it a chance.
The fourth and final season of Succession will air on HBO on Sunday, March 26. Make sure to tune in so you don’t miss the final battle as the Roy siblings try to convince their father to choose a worthy successor.
