While the Native Scotsman has expressed prior concern over Strongs method acting affecting his mental health, the 76-year-old has recently found it more maddening than ever.
Hes a very good actor. And the rest of the ensemble is all okay with this. But knowing a character and what the character does is only part of the skill, he told Town & Country.
Succession has become a flagship for HBO since premiering in 2018. The hilariously cynical (and often quite Shakespearean) show sees billionaire Logan Roy (Cox) and his children, including son Kendall (Strong), in a dynastic battle for media industry power amid personal turmoil.
While fans have been waiting since 2021 for the fourth season to arrive, presumably no one is as relieved to have wrapped filming as Cox who previously told The New Yorker he worries about the crises Strong puts himself through by staying in character.

Hes still that guy, because he feels if he went somewhere else hed lose it, Cox told Town & Country. But he wont! Strong is talented. Hes fucking gifted. When youve got the gift, celebrate the gift. Go back to your trailer and have a hit of marijuana, you know?
