“Succession” wins second consecutive Emmy for Best Drama

“Succession” won an Emmy for Best Drama Series at the US Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Awards held at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Monday evening (9/12). It was the second consecutive victory for the HBO production, which had already won the category last year.

The attraction’s 3rd season led the 2022 Emmys by number of nominations. But he only won 4 of his 25 nominations, three fewer than last year. After Best Drama, his main hits were in the categories of Best Supporting Actor, with Matthew Macfadyen, and Best Screenplay, which awarded its creator, Jesse Armstrong.

In his appreciation for the highest trophy, Armstrong recalled that this “is a great week for succession”, drawing a parallel between the victory of the “Succession” and the ascent of King Charles III to the British throne. “Evidently, there was a little more vote in our victory than King Charles’s.”

The series follows a family’s struggles for control of a powerful media conglomerate – presumably inspired by the Fox heirs – and which had won no fewer than seven Emmys in its second season.

Produced by director Adam McKay (“Don’t Look Up”), the cast features Brian Cox (“Churchill”) as the head of the Roy family, a tycoon who decides to reconsider his retirement plans in the face of l greed of his children, played by Jeremy Strong (“Detroit in Rebellion”), Sarah Snook (“Fated”), Kieran Culkin (“Scott Pilgrim vs. the World”) and Alan Ruck (“The Exorcist”).
