Now, we are excited to know how the story will take a turn in the forthcoming season. So, let me tell you how many updates linked to season 3 have arrived so far.
Has HBO Announced Succession Season 3 Release Date?
HBO announced the renewal of the third season in the month of August even before streaming all episodes of the second season. Firstly, there were plans to release season 3 this year. But COVID spoiled everything and creators were forced to shift the Succession season 3 release date. Brian Cox himself told that the shooting has been halted during a conversation with The Scotsman.
Initially, he mentioned, “We’re just on hold,” and then further said, “We will resume as soon as it is safe to because the show is very popular.” A few months back Variety informed that shooting would begin from late autumn even when Cox said that production would not start before November and could be shifted to 2021.
“We have to be careful due to the obvious (COVID),” Cox said to The Big House. “HBO wants to protect that show because it’s a key show for them. People have been really been watching it quite obsessively, sometimes two or three times over. So they’re very protective of us and we have to get all the protocols right.
We’ve got our own medical department dealing with the COVID thing. We’ll get going, but not until maybe November at the soonest, maybe even not until the beginning of next year.” And later on, 6th of November Alan Ruck informed us that they will begin the filming from the ongoing month. He disclosed this in the newest episode of People TV’s Couch Surfing.

How Will Succession Season 3 Plot Be?
Obviously, we don’t know any information regarding the story of season 3 but you can take a look at our anticipations. We can see a face-off between Logan and Roy after the incidents that took place in the climax of season 2.
In fact, Brian Cox said in his latest conference with Deadline that several explosions between the duo are remaining and they will be shown in next season. Also, there are speculations that Roman(played by Kieran Culkin) will be highlighted more in Succession season 3 episodes.
You might have observed that Kendall got extra attention in the first season while Shiv received the spotlight in the second season. Now, it is seeming that next time Roman will get more limelight. Culkin said to Vulture, “Maybe next year is Roman’s turn.”
There are also chances that we will get more insights into Tom and Shiv’s bond as it was looking that it was going through a tough phase in the second season. COVID-19 pandemic may also be mentioned in the drama. Cox has elaborated about this in his conversation with The Scotsman.
Concurrently, we will be introduced to the more advanced version of the series. Script maker Lucy Prebble indicated that the series is on the way to expand its growth in the course of the third season. She described to Deadline, “There are … a lot of talks about going more international than we’ve gone before, which is to do with the relationship between the media industry and international countries.”
She further included, “The way international countries input, control, and fund the media in ways that aren’t talked about as clearly as they should be… There are big conversations about how countries and media intersect at the moment.”
In August, Sarah Snook disclosed how will this deadly virus affect the plot of the upcoming season. She said that the virus would have an influence on the drama in a realistic manner however, there is the least possibility that Jesse Armstrong would swap the plot following COVID-19.
During a conference with The Hollywood reporter she elaborated, “Just for safety reasons, we’re going to have to look at how many extras are in a scene, for instance.
“But Jesse is a person who doesn’t really want to compromise what stories they want to tell as writers just for the pandemic.”
“They’re obviously talented writers, so there will be a very delicate hand on how much is included, but we’re not trying to make a show about a wealthy family during a pandemic.”
Hence there are several predictions regarding the third season but the actual will be known only after the launch of the series.
