    KC plays his part in Succession brilliantly, he is perfect for the role.
    I must say the casting for Succession is top notch. there is not a main character in it that I 'don't buy'. Most shows, even good ones, have at least a few actors who can't sell their role. Many shows with a good plot and writing are destroyed by poor casting choices.

      Not disagreeing, but I think Logan, Kendall and Tom are the most perfectly cast characters. No other actors could have done full justice to those roles. Whereas, I'm sure many wonderful actors could have played Roman, Shiv and Greg. They just happened to choose these wonderful actors, which is fine.

      @@aquamarine99911 Weird take as Roman, Shiv, and Greg are the most like the actors playing them of anyone on the show. In interviews Nicholas Braun has the exact same speech patterns and mannerisms. Can't think of a single contemporary who would excel in that role as he does. Whereas Matthew Macfadyen is worlds apart from Tom. Bottom line is that they're all amazing regardless of how outside of their natural inclinations they're playing.

      Often TV show writers will write the character for the actor they choose so it's likely that they're using aspects of Kieran's personality to write Roman

    • @aleksisuuronen5969
      @aleksisuuronen5969 Рік тому +13

      Usually a good show will write over the actors and their relarionships on the set, to some amount atleast. If they see some people having chemistry they will use it or sees an actor behaving say in sarcastic manner and putting some of that in there if they find it charming. It just works, this series does it very clearly and it makes for example improvising (which Kieran didn't do at the start of the show but apparently have done later quite heavily) much easier. That's just kinda blending the character to the actors outward quirks, you still have to incorporate a huge amount of stuff that isn't you for the camera since for example Roman is very far out there example of a person.

    I missed the beginning of Kieran's story when this aired, so the entire time he was telling it I didn't know if he was describing real life or a scene in the show. That's how close these actors are to their characters

    House of the dragon followed by Succession followed by Westworld. HBO is on a roll.

      Sadly HBO canceled Westworld and pulled it from HBOMax too, Westworld also used to break records with the Emmys back in the day I don't understand how they can treat an HBO original with such a top tier cast so poorly.

    He’s like Roman, but without the spineless, creepy aspects.
