The recently released trailer for Succession Season 4 by British creator Jesse Armstrong teases the continuation of the turbulent power struggles within the Roy family, who own the media conglomerate. The Roy siblings, which includes failed presidential candidate Connor (Alan Ruck), once-favored son Kendall (Jeremy Strong), childish Roman (Kieran Culkin), and deceitful Shiv (Sarah Snook), are shown in the trailer coping with the fallout from their failed coup in the season finale of the previous year as well as their father’s plan to sell the business to tech tycoon Lukas Matsson (Alexander Skarsgård) 

Plot 

“The sale of media conglomerate Waystar Royco to tech visionary Lukas Matsson (Alexander Skarsgard) moves ever closer. The prospect of this seismic sale provokes existential angst and familial division among the Roys as they anticipate what their lives will look like once the deal is complete. A power struggle ensues as the family weighs up a future where their cultural and political weight is severely curtailed,” as per the official description from HBO for Succession Season 4.
