“I got a call from my agents, ‘Can you get on a plane in a couple of days to shoot an episode of Succession?’ I was like, ‘Yes, I can do that.’”
’s big Election Night episode, the series introduces the very far right-leaning news network’s resident voting analyst, a guy named Darwin who finds his attempts to accurately analyze the data overruled by the whims of his superiors.
Did you think much about Darwin’s backstory? How does someone with that much integrity end up at ATN of all places? They brought in a guy from CNN. I got to speak to him the first day I was in; we had a sit-down and a great chat. I could sense his enthusiasm, his passion, how meticulously the details matter. They’re not life-and-death decisions, but they have huge implications, and you have a huge responsibility. You could feel the weight of it. That also informed how I could explore the inner life of this character. The brilliance of Jesse is that those little details just make the thing real.
