Honestly. Can’t. Wait.A host of exciting new cast members are set to join the ranks for the new season, including Adrien Brody, Alexander Skarsgard, Sanaa Lathan, Linda Emond and Jihae.Some familiar faces have also been bumped up to series regulars this season including Willa Ferreyra (Justine Lupe), shady chief financial officer Karl Muller (David Rasche) and Waystar Royco’s senior comms exec, Fisher Stevens (Hugo Baker).Succession season 3 premieres on Foxtel on October 18Foxtel is majority-owned by News Corp, publisher of this website
