HBO are not considering Succession spin-offs

HBO's Head of Drama Francesca Orsi has stated that Succession will not be receiving any spin-off series. The announcement came after the hit series' final episode aired, bringing it to a close.

Orsi shared with Deadline that she knows, "there was some talk about spinoffs, but no, not at all."

"I’ll never say never but my instinct and based on a number of conversations about the evolution of Succession and these characters, at this stage, there is no intention of spinning any one character off."

Orsi said that she doesn't know what Successsion's creator Jesse Armstrong is planning to do next but she thinks, "it will be entirely original. Whether it’s based on IP or not, I’m not sure, but it will be a new show, a new idea entirely."

Earlier this month Fisher Stevens, who plays Hugo Baker in the series, revealed that he had written a spin-off for his own character. Stevens has portrayed Hugo, an executive at the fictional Waystar RoyCo company, in seasons two, three and four of the HBO series.

Following the finale, actors Brian Cox and Sarah Snook shared touching farewell posts on social media.

Cox, who played Logan Roy in the HBO series, shared a message on his Instagram story after the show’s finale was released. "We have now come to the end," Cox wrote. "And what has been, in my career, certainly the greatest work experience ever. The harmony between crew and cast was truly amazing."

Snook also shared an Instagram post, saying, "it’s hard to express what this show has meant to me,” the actor wrote. “The place I got to go, the immense talent I got to work with… it breaks my heart that it is all over."

"But my heart had to be this full of all the memories, good times, challenges and triumphs, to be able to break at all… so that makes me grateful. To have been blessed to join this crazy adventure of a show will be a career highlight, which will no doubt be hard to top."
