Even in remote villages of Italy, the fans find their Tom Wambsgans. See what actor Matthew Macfadyen told WWD about his 'Succession' chara character.
Macfadyen is as excited as anyone to be finally talking “Succession” once again. The show, which follows the Roy family and their closest confidantes and enemies at media conglomerate Waystar RoyCo, has won Emmys, Golden Globes, Critics Choice awards and more since debuting in 2018; Macfadyen, who plays the husband of Shiv Roy and is therefore both family and an outsider, says he knew it was something to pay attention to from the pilot.
Macfadyen says it’s hard as the actor portraying him to have a bird’s-eye view of Tom’s evolution, and points out that while it’s been three seasons in our world, on the show it’s a much shorter timeline, as each season picks up right where the last left off.“I think he’s just doing his best, Tom. I think he’s struggling with this sort of weird marriage that he’s in, and he’s trying with his father-in-law, and wants to do well by him.
“I was just sort of floating around waiting for things to come, and I wanted to work in the States. I hadn’t done a TV show in America, so the pilot came my way and it just checked all the boxes, really,” he says. “I’d also been playing a lot of quite serious parts, serious kinds of roles, so this was a really delightful change. It was a breath of fresh air.”
“You can’t please everybody,” he says dryly. “She says, ‘Why can’t you be in a good show?’ I’m like, ‘My show is doing quite well,’ and she’s, like, ‘Yeah, whatever, whatever.’”
