Add as a preferred source on Google

For one last time, the Roy family will battle for control over Waystar Royco in the fourth and final season of HBO’s Succession, which released its official trailer on Thursday morning.

In the season 3 finale, Logan Roy (The Independent’s Brian Cox) agreed on a deal with Lukas Matsson (The Northman’s Alexander Skarsgård) to sell Waystar Royco to GoJo. In the process, Logan stopped his three children — Kendall (Armageddon Time’s Jeremy Strong), Shiv (Run Rabbit Run’s Sarah Snook), and Roman (No Sudden Move’s Kieran Culkin) — from blocking the sale by stripping their voting rights away, making them powerless within the company.

The season four trailer depicts the Roy siblings preparing for battle against their father as they attempt to thwart the sale to GoJo. Meanwhile, Tom (The Assistant’s Matthew Macfadyen), who aided in Logan’s fight against the Roy siblings, finds himself in the crosshairs of the battle with his trusty sidekick, Cousin Greg (Cat Person’s Nicholas Braun), as he deals with the aftermath of turning against Shiv. Additionally, Connor Roy (The Dropout’s Alan Ruck) moves one step closer to his wedding.
