A new trailer for season four of HBO’s Succession dropped Thursday morning, leaving us with excitement and a lot of questions.
Near the end of the trailer, Tom Wambsgans (Matthew Macfadyen) tells his sidekick Greg Hirsch (Nicholas Braun, aka Greg the Egg), “This is a chessboard. And every move is crucial. Like, Israel-Palestine, Greg, but harder. And much more important.”
So, it sounds like we’re due for some fireworks within the Roy family for season four, which is to be expected considering how things were left at the end of season three, with – spoiler alert – Tom backstabbing his wife Siobhan (Sarah Snook) to earn some points with daddy-in-law Logan (Brian Cox).

Succession has won four Golden Globes and eight Emmys. It’s also an incredibly memeable show that has spawned mashups like this, with the New York Knicks.
