'Succession' Stars Nicholas Braun & Matthew Macfadyen Break Down Their Roles | Entertainment Weekly
/ ew - Розваги
Tom actually has more chemistry with Greg than with his own wife.
They're the two outsiders who kind of tangentially are part of the family.
@@ClueSign What I find disturbing and even painful is how Tom keeps trying to connect with Shiv and how she always pushes him away, like it's almost sadistic. I wonder if the interaction would be any different if Tom beolonged to the same circle.
@@cbojorquez It is disturbing how she is so aggressively cruel and dismissive of him; so willing to sacrifice him to the political machinations of her father, and even willing to exploit his love by declaring she wants an open marriage, but only AFTER they wed. Not nice.
@@ClueSign cruel, yes, but not that surprising given her upbringing. ): Succession is such a tragedy. No matter how dickish they are, I feel really bad for the Roy children. They were raised in a veritable minefield, formative years ripe with emotional abuse from their domineering father and otherwise antipathetic mother. Love was seen as a weakness, vulnerability, something to exploit; likewise, relationships were transactional, just another facet of business where there’s a winner and loser. As a result, Shiv can’t bring herself to open up to Tom. That would mean going against the (sad, messed up) values instilled in her practically from birth. I believe that Shiv loves Tom (Sarah Snook and MattMac have said as much), but she has such poor interpersonal effectiveness skills that it comes across as a cruel kind of half-love. As sad as it is, it’s really entertaining to watch. And it also highlights the disparity between Tom’s relationship with Shiv, who pushes him away, and Greg, who validates and strokes Tom’s ego. No wonder he loses his cool every time Greg stands his ground. That’s his emotional support egg.
@@tiredfrog308 "emotional support greg(g)
Tom and Greg are basically succession's power couple also I'll never get over the fact that they talk about their characters in first person.
Third person you mean?
@@nicoleloves9483 they do speak in first person a lot
A lot of actors do, I love it
You can’t make a tomlette without breaking some greggs
Well, someone had to say it I guess...
sent 67 times in one evening
this joke isn't even funny it's so overdone
67 times, can u imagine 🤣🤣
I think it’s now law in all fifty states. Someone has to make that comment if a video contains both Nicholas Braun and Matthew Macfadyan talking about their characters.
The fact that Matthew MacFadyen also plays Mr.Darcy is one of my favorite things
YES!
Him walking through the fog as Darcy!
You have bewitched me body and soul
Mathew is the reason I'm watching this show
Mr Darcy? Watch him in Little Dorrit, a BBC series, and you'll be blown away. Mr Darcy is nothing like that.
"I would castrate you Greg and I'd marry you in a heartbeat" Tom Wambsgans
what a quote… those two are endgame
That was such a beautiful moment
The only honest thing Tom's ever said
I wonder if his character is really falling in love with cousin Greg. He only want to breed with Shiv. So it seems
“Will you come with me, Sporus?” If you know, you know
Listening to Matthew is like a cup of hot chocolate in winter
they are both so attractive in such a different way
My favourite insult was Tom telling Greg he could be the weirdest king in Europe
so now they're doing couples photoshoots
Both actors are gifted with such awesome roles. Their dynamic doesn't feel unfamiliar, but I can't think of another show that's portrayed a relationship like this. They also help function more as audience surrogates, even central protagonists, since they're witnessing all the insanity from an outsider perspective.
The only thing that comes remotely close is Louis and Harold from Suits
kind of reminded me of the office's brian and the boss guy (don't remember his name) in comedic sense
They are very much simon and toby from in the loop which shares a scenarist with succession
These guys always crack me up when they're on screen together. They're a classic comedy odd couple.
Its Nero and Sporus!
Let’s face it: Greg is playing Nicholas.
He’s playing himself
Sturdie birdie
Nicholas seems much more sure of himself.
this kid isn’t even acting he’s actually like that
When are we getting one of these for Roman and Gerri 😭
Ikr!!! I can hardly wait to see what happens between these two.
a couples photoshoot with them (where roman is tom leaning into greg) would save my life
Ok but Matt's eyelashes are just plain amazing, just that.
Best dynamic duo in the show. Both Tom and Greg are actually very alone and misfit in this big mess of Roy family circus where everyone is busy in backstabbing another. Nic is right they both need someone in their lives to rely on. Very well written characters. Matthew is an incredible actor & Nic is very sweet. I would love to see them leaving Waystar Royco & setting up their own company together.
Greg is Toms work wife. The Dynamic is brilliant. Batman and Robin. Terrible people but they are less terrible than the Roy's. Tom made it clear that he cares for Greg, every Tom needs a Sporus.
which will make it all the more devastating when Greg eventually kills Tom
Macfayden is a beauty
I couldn't take the smile of my face while watching this.
Matthew is very tall, like Howard Stern-tall, which gives you an idea of how crazy tall Nicholas Braun is.
The shot where they are sitting on the buildings - those are scale. These guys are really that big.
Yap, 6'3" and 6'7" two towers
Gregg has the best lines. "No comment!!! No Comment!!" - "You don't have to keep yelling 'no comment''"
These guys have such incredible chemistry. Both brilliant actors
"Suites at the tops of hotels"
Sounds like something Gregg would say lol
4:17 its amazing how they keep surprising me what the hell is this
never beating the allegations
and i’m grateful
4:20 the ship sail itself lollll
I would love to see Nicholas Braun in a rom com, he’s got that sweet golden retriever energy 😄
Nicholas Braun has very "kind" facial features...despite being 2m tall he radiates a very approachable and non-intimidating vibe...cool guy!
That’s how he gets women
"when logan [gives a pat on the back] it's very important" he was giving us a spoiler without giving out who that was about...
I would like to see a spin off series with Tom and Greg sharing a cell, possibly a Porridge re-boot.
😂😂😂
This show looks like a more serious, higher budget Arrested Development 😂😂😂
Lol you nailed it, maybe this is why I am obsessed with both then
Well I hope it stays good after season 3!! Loved 1-3 AD
More serious, yes, but it can also be just as funny as Arrested Development when they want to be.
I've been saying that for the longest time!
30 Rock with fancy clothes. Cousin Greg is Kenneth, Roman is Tracy Jordan, and Logan is Don Geiss.
MM is such a brilliant actor and on top he's got an extraordinary voice and good looks.
Brilliant tv duo. Just brilliant chemistry y
Nicholas's dancing is doing something to me.
What I love about most about Tom isn’t Tom. It’s Matthew. I JUST LOVE HIS VOICE IDK WHY!! Tom is among the best characters in Succession as well but man, I wouldn’t like him as much if he was played by someone else. Matthew nailed this role!
They need their own spinoff show
nicholas braun is good in this show and all, but i prefer his performance in princess protection program, personally.
😂
lmaoao
fellow 22//23 year old? we old now huh? aha
Personally, same 😂😅
Have y’all seen minutemen?? Because that’s where he really shines haha 😂
It’s a mint you doofus 🤣🤣🤣
Toms married to Shiv but let’s be honest, Tom absolutely loves Greg
He's Sporus
I agree, their characters do care about each other, in a way others on the show don’t.
I thought I did, but I did not understand how beautifully a man could love another man until this.
My favorite show for years. I’ve rewatched it about four or five times. I am so excited for the new episodes.
These guy are the best part of the show for me!
These are the Rosencrantz and Guildenstern of Succession, and I want a Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead-style sidequel when all is said and done.
\
Gregory chugging his rum and Coke is one of the “funniest” dramatic scenes you will ever see.
one of the best combo in TV history.
They totally belong together. ❤️
something very lgbt is going on
LMFAO
When these two are on-screen..it’s electric...you don’t know what’s going to happen
tom where the hell have you been loca
Kendall should have bought Greg that watch he will regret it.
It's an incredible example of absurd wealth, where it's a huge favor introducing someone to a salesman so they can have the privilege of purchasing a 40k watch.
@varun prasad well we're only custodians after all
So facts
The photo shot that I didn’t know I needed. 😂
The bromance is offscreen as well. Nice.
Tom and Greg are my favorite part of the show, I would definitely watch a spin-off about them
OK but Nicholas is slaying that pink/purple jacket
Cringe.
The greatest comedic elements of the show are these two together.
Tom and Greg are my OTP. 😍
I fell in love with Matthew M after Joe Wright’s Pride and Prejudice in which he played the role of Mr Darcy. Hot-hot-hot!
I fell in love with Matthew when he starred in Spooks (called MI5 in North America).
Same here! -Kerrie
i want these two so bad its unreal
Matthew has really beautiful eyes.... 😊
Nic teasing the season's ending at 5:27
the casting is so good it feels like they’re still acting in this interview
love my tall boys
Hahaha that slow mo lip to the finger
The other actors are good too, but somehow these two guys have the best chemistry on the show. Is this a coincidence? But the great love is still the money and power in this series and these things can ruin everything, even this nice and elusive chemistry.
Those two are my favorite characters. Absolutely genius writing and acting. Tom! You scoundrel.
My two favorite characters. This show is so good!
Tom > all.
This was a great interview. Loved their outfits and the set too.
So much tallness in one frame 😲😲
Nero and Sporus, ultimate power couple.
I wish that Greg has a comeback one time, just once!
Same! I've been waiting for his moment to crack!
Tbf, he did come back at Tom when Tom said Comfrey was out of Greg’s league and told Tom Shiv is out of Tom’s
does anyone else remember when nicholas braun was in that disney channel movie “sky high” i’m still not over it
love that movie
Man I can't wait to see them in season 4! Last two scenes in Season 3 were crazy
Wow. Never thought I needed a video like that. Fucking legends both. Can't get enough of the wacky photoshoot of them🤣🤣
Okay but why do they look like an artsy and fabulous gay couple who live in West Village at 2:38, 4:18 and 9:38
Actors
They are C3PO And R2D2!
Love both characters. They've become like all famous duos!
HAHAHA accurate comment.
CANT THINK OF A BETTER DUO RN TBH! I LOVE THESE TWO! 🤍
I needed this. Thank you.
These two are a couple for the ages, kinda like Dean and Jerry or Arnold and Danny. Just great character chemistry.
So... This is like a confirmation that this ship is happening? Because come on... Even they know they're the it couple of the show.
Greggy... he was dying of thirst and now's he's a mineral water critic. LOL
I am waiting to see when Greg will come out of his underdog status! I love to watch the dynamic of these duo.
Tom & Greg are the Rosencrantz & Guildenstern of Succession, but with more agency (as of end of season 3 anyway).
Wow!!! Amazing interview...these two guys are on fire!!! Love, Matthew though!!!
These 2 could have their own spinoff
Ah, Mr. Darcy
I can't wait til Cousin Greg's arc is fully realized and he becomes CEO -- in season 4?
Ignoring regional accents, this does highlight to me that Macfadyen, unlike most of the main cast, doesn't sound/feel like his character naturally and has to do some 'real' acting to get there. Braun here comes across not too different from Greg. That's not a knock on the other actors; they just happened to be cast to their natural qualities.
This show is amazing and these characters are phenomenal
Love these actors❤️
I love you both!!! AWESOME ANOINTINGS!!!
I love them together they are so funny! And can we talk about that amazing photoshoot??? They truly are Tom and Greg
Me apaixonei perdidamente por Matthew por causa de Mr. Darcy, de Orgulho e Preconceito: seu enorme talento, sua altura e elegância, sua voz, seu sotaque, seus olhos, suas mãos e como ele as mexe quando fala, sua risada e os "barulhinhos" que às vezes faz com a boca quando fala. Ele é tudo para mim e por causa dele estou solteira, não aceito menos que um Darcy. Torço por Tom e acho que Matthew é terrivelmente subestimado; há atores menores que ele e que têm mais reconhecimento. Você enfeitiçou meu corpo e alma e eu o amo, eu o amo, eu o amo. Kisses from Brazil. 🇧🇷
Wow kkkk
Blimey
caraca hein filha kkkjjkkkj a declaração
Mds, sei como é isso kk
I love these two together!
Thank you for this
Both lovely guys
I fucking LOVE this relationship, can't wait until Greg fucks shit up. Which I'm sure is on the horizon!
Nicholas rocking that GTA Vice City shirt like a champ!
It’s a mint you dufus!! Lol
Boar on the floor scene is so epic! Like a train wreck, you cannot look away!
