Succession Fans Shocked as Jeremy Strong Attempts to Jump into River While Filming Last Scene

Fans of HBO’s hit series Succession were left stunned after actor Jeremy Strong, who plays Kendall Roy in the show, attempted to jump into a river while filming the last scene of the season. Strong’s co-stars reportedly had to restrain him from jumping, with sources stating that he was in character and felt Kendall “wanted to die” in that moment.

The incident occurred on location in New York, where the cast and crew had been filming for the final episodes of the show’s third season. According to witnesses, Strong had been preparing for the scene for hours and appeared to become increasingly agitated as filming went on. When the cameras stopped rolling, he reportedly ran towards the river and attempted to jump in.

His co-stars immediately intervened and managed to hold him back from the edge of the water. Strong has not commented on the incident, and representatives for HBO declined to make a statement.

The incident sparked online debate among Succession fans, with some praising Strong’s dedication to his role and others questioning the safety protocols on set. One fan tweeted, “I mean, I love Jeremy Strong, but let’s not put lives at risk for the sake of art.”

Succession has been a critical and commercial success for HBO, and has been renewed for a fourth season. The show follows the lives of the Roy family, who control a global media and entertainment empire, and centers on their battle for power and control. Its third season is set to premiere later this year.
