by Gabrielle Bondi

Succession knows how to leave viewers hanging with an explosive season finale episode, and Season 3 is no exception.

The Season 3 finale has fans immediately wondering if the HBO series will be back for Season 4. Whereas Episode 8 had us worried about the future of the characters, the finale was all about the fate of the company. Without Waystar-Royco, well, there is no question of succession.

Here is everything you need to know about Succession Season 4.

What is the Succession Season 4 plot?

Succession Season 4 is expected to continue where the Season 3 finale episode left off. Logan decided to consider Matsson’s offer to buy Waystar-Royco. In Logan’s eyes, selling the company means he wins, and his children lose their chance to take over the company.

Reeling from their loss, Kendall, Roman, and Shiv will need to develop a new game plan. Can they beat their father’s ultimate checkmate? Or will they need to find something new to do with their lives? For Shiv, specifically, her marriage will likely see a reckoning. The final scenes of the Season 3 finale suggest that Tom tipped Logan off about his children’s plan to team up against him.

Is there a Succession Season 4 trailer?
