Sarah Snook Almost Didn't Audition For 'Succession'

You're playing all the other guests, yes. But, you know, like, I don't think of them as me at all. I think of them as... The characters. I mean, I can only see a kind of a side version of them as well because the screen is obviously not three-dimensional.

But weirdly enough, because it's six different people and, you know, each of those was shot individually and then comped together and, you know, there's the kind of magic of that.

There's something that I didn't realize or I'd forgotten that I'd done as the Duchess that is quite nice to play off of against and to be like, oh, she's thinking that there. That's funny. Which is, you know, I can't do anything with that verbally, but I can use it to act opposite and to create something new for Lord Henry's performance.

Yeah, I mean, it is a lot of fun to do. And the narrator really is, in a sense, funny. Oscar Wilde. I'm not playing him as a character, but there is his energy and his wit is definitely infused naturally into that role because it is the character based on the prose of the book. Kip's turned a Victorian novel into a a play and a Victorian novel that wasn't meant to be read out loud.

It wasn't like a Dickens or anything like that. It was meant to be read and in episodic form in a way. So it's somewhat difficult to turn that into dialogue as well as into something that is accessible to an audience now.
