Brian Cox told Jimmy Fallon that the creator of Succession, Jesse Armstrong, ''hinted'' to him that the show was going to conclude with the fourth season but didn't explicitly mention it.
He also praised the creator, saying:
''He (Jesse Armstrong) won't let something go past its sell-by date. He knows that television isn't infinite; for him, it's finite. And each season tops the last season. And there's only so much that you can do in topping the seasons. So this season is the topper of all seasons.''
During the interview, Jimmy Fallon showed Cox a photo of Brian Cox featuring alongside the rest of Succession's cast. Fallon asked him if any one of his onscreen kids ''deserve anything'' to which Cox jokingly replied saying ''no.''
Brian Cox has received massive critical acclaim for his performance throughout the three seasons of the show. He perfectly captures the shrewd and cunning nature of his character with stunning ease and defines the show's tone with his performance.
Apart from the acclaimed HBO series, Brian Cox has been a part of several acclaimed TV shows and movies over the years like 25th Hour, The Slap, Braveheart, and many more.
