Succession's Jeremy Strong reveals a SHOCKING alternate ending trends now
Succession star Jeremy Strong has revealed a shock alternate ending to the show, which concluded in spectacular style on Sunday.
The actor, who plays Kendall Roy on the show, spoke to Kara Swisher on the official Succession podcast about his improvisation of his character's final scene, in which he attempted to jump into a river - unbeknownst to cast and crew.
Kendall had his dreams crushed when his sister Shiv betrayed him and blocked him becoming the CEO of their late father's company Waystar Royco and in the wake of the betrayal he is seen sitting on a bench with his minder watching on.
Jeremy, who has spoken in the past about his method acting, revealed he actually climbed the railings to inch his way into the water before he was saved by Scott Nicholson's character Colin, his minder who was previously his father's driver.
He said: 'I stood up and walked slowly to the barrier that was set up there and climbed over it. And I didn't really know what I plan to do. And the actor playing Colin saw me and ran and stopped me from doing it.'

Pained: Kendall's fury was born of his sister Shiv's betrayal
Succession came to an epic conclusion on Sunday night with its 90-minute series finale, which has set social media ablaze with comments.
The series finale - entitled With Open Eyes - lead up to the important Waystar Royco board meeting, where the final vote on the merger with Lukas Matsson's - played by Alexander Skarsgard - GoJo was held.
The episode's many twists and turns, iconic moments and stand-out lines were so popular that topics like 'Tom Wambsgans,' 'Kendall,' 'Jeremy Strong' and 'I AM THE ELDEST BOY' were trending topics across Twitter on Sunday evening.
In Jeremy's final scene, he is seen walking in the park with Colin walking in his wake - in scenes that echoed a previous moment featuring his father - before he settles on a bench and looks out at the water, leaving questions about his mindset.
And while it seemed the implication was that he may jump, Jeremy was tempted to make the conclusion himself by staging his own improv.
