'I’m into the journey as much as you,' said actor Peter Friedman, who plays Frank in 'Succession.' 'I’m being kept on tenterhooks by what these cool writers have in mind.'
But then there is Frank Vernon, the seemingly even-keeled corporate lieutenant who has patiently survived more than three decades of C-suite drama at Waystar Royco, the media conglomerate at the center of the series.
In a recent phone interview, Friedman, 72, talked about his own impressions of the character he plays on “Succession.” Is he as decent as he seems — or is there darkness under the surface? Friedman did not weigh in on the latest episode because he had not seen it yet.NBC News: Logan Roy has a knack for humiliating everybody in his orbit. He loves to “kick” people, as his ex-wife says in the latest episode.
I think the original draft of the fourth episode, once upon a time, began with Frank in his quote “opulent bedroom” sitting at his desk [and] a woman in his bed gets a call from the doorman saying, “the FBI is here.” I said, “Whoa!” I had no idea I had an opulent bedroom. I had no idea I had a woman in my bed.I’ve debated with friends and co-workers whether “Succession” is fundamentally a comedy or a tragedy.
