It’s one of the most anticipated television programmes of 2021 – and we don’t have long to wait to catch up with the latest adventures of the Roy family. Series three of the Golden
Globe-winning Succession, created by British writer Jesse Armstrong, was delayed by the coronavirus pandemic, leading to frustration for those desperate to know the fate of the media family
from hell. But it’s now officially back – here’s everything you need to know. WHAT’S SUCCESSION ABOUT? Succession follows the fortunes of the Roy family – a clan who control the biggest
media and entertainment company in the world. When their father, Logan Roy played by Brian Cox, steps down from the company it has repercussions that impacts all their lives. The first
season opens with the arrival of Cousin Greg (Nicholas Braun) looking to profit from the family business as Logan's health deteriorates, and ends with a dramatic car crash in the midst
of Shiv's wedding to ambitious Tom (Matthew Macfadyen). Season 2 featured a mix of scandals and power games, leading to a cliffhanger over who would take the reins of the family empire.
WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT SEASON 3 OF SUCCESSION? Season 3 of Succession will see heir-apparent Kendall Roy step up his battle against his devious father Logan Roy for control of the family-run
media empire. We’ll also find out about Roman’s potential partnership with Gerri, Shiv and Tom’s failing marriage and Connor’s doomed presidential campaign. WHO STARS IN SEASON 3 OF
SUCCESSION? All the main characters are returning for the latest season – led by Scottish actor Brian Cox as Logan Roy. Jeremy Strong, Hiam Abbass, Sarah Snook, Kieran Culkin, Alan Ruck,
