Kieran Culkin, who starred in the series as Roman Roy, has conflicting feelings about more episodes in the future.
“I knew this wasn’t the kind of show that could keep going and going. I always thought five seasons,” Culkin shared during a conversation with Taika Waititi for Interview Magazine. “It was just a number I had in my head. I remember, towards the end of Season 3, going, ‘I’m worried we’re going to enter a territory where we’re becoming Succession-y.’ Then when Season 4 happened, the first two episodes, I remember reading scripts and thinking, ‘Okay, this feels a little Succession-y. It’s very good, but I’m a little worried about it.’ And then from [Episode 3] on, this season is very, very different, which is exciting, but makes me feel like, ‘Couldn’t there be a [Season 5], now that the show is kind of different?’ I want to see what else happens. And there very well could be. Jesse knows that.”
