Brian Cox and Emily Blunt were participating in Variety's Actors on Actors series when Brian's Succession costar Kieran Culkin crashed the set.
Once a (television) father-son duo, always a father-son duo.
Brian Cox and Kieran Culkin just finished a legendary run on Succession where Brian played Logan Roy, the patriarch of a media empire and father to four children: Connor (Alan Ruck), Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Shiv (Sarah Snook), and Roman whom Kieran played.
Brian and Kieran shared many scenes together, though several included Kieran’s character being terrified of his father’s wrath. Thankfully, the tricky relationship seems to have not bled offscreen.
Kieran recently crashed a photoshoot for Variety's Actors on Actors interview series Brian was participating in with Emily Blunt, and Brian had the sweetest reaction to seeing his former costar and TV son.
Every year, Variety has acclaimed actors interview their peers. This year, Brian and Emily were paired together.
Separately, Kieran was paired with Claire Danes.
Kieran was evidently at the same venue when Emily and Brian were sitting for photos because he crashed their shoot. Variety shared the adorable moment on Twitter Friday morning, which was the same day Kieran’s interview with Emily was published.
