Does Brian Cox earn more than other cast members of 'Succession'? Here's how much money each actor made in final season

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The Roys have it all — a media conglomerate, god-level wealth, and strong cultural and financial influence. They are the epitome of class, fame, and money that can transcend boundaries and make anyone fall at their mercy. ‘Succession’ is the La La Land of the Roys who buy and sell as they wish, who turn the world upside down for their profits, and who will fight tooth and nail for acquiring the next dollar. In tandem with their onscreen personalities, the actors playing the roles of ultra-rich men and women also make a good living from their work.

Succession' has reaffirmed HBO’s impeccable quality of identifying world-class projects and giving it a platform to thrive. The benefits of this success trickle down to the actors who are now making a wealthy living because of the show’s worldwide popularity. Brian Cox (Logan Roy), Jeremy Strong (Kendall Roy), Kieran Culkin (Roman Roy), Sarah Snook (Shiv Roy), Matthew Macfayden (Tom Wambsgans), Nicholas Braun (Greg Hirsch), and Alan Ruck (Connor Roy) renegotiated their salaries with the streaming giant and took massive sums of money home. But among them all, Brian Cox leads the way, taking almost half a million dollar salary per episode for his bombastic portrayal of Logan Roy in the final season of the show. But how much did the rest of the cast make? Was their remuneration on par with Cox’s salary? Let’s find out.

Big money but still couldn’t beat Brian Cox

Succession has shown us that Logan Roy will carve a path to thrive. Be it his negotiating skills or his visionary ideas, the Waystar Royco patriarch knows how to mint money and turn businesses profitable. It seems that the same quality is ingrained in Cox who managed to negotiate his salary and force the hands of the executives to take home $400,000-$500,000 per episode. However, his peers made less despite re-negotiating their salaries with the studio.

As per The Hollywood Reporter, the cast was making under $100,000 per episode when 'Succession' started. However, after brutal negotiations with HBO, the ensemble cast of Jeremy, Kieran, Sarah, Matthew, Alan, and Nicholas ended up with a salary of $300,000 to $350,000 per episode. These were major pay raises from the previous seasons and the incredible success of the show made it all possible for them. However, despite all their best efforts, none of them could come close to Cox’s salary for the final season.

What is individual net worth of the ‘Succession’ cast?

Once again, Cox tops the list with a net worth of $15 million, riding on a successful stint as an actor for over five decades, according tohttps://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/actors/brian-cox-net-worth/. Alan Ruck comes in at second with $12 million, while Jeremy Strong is holding his fort at $6 million. Matthew Macfayden of ‘Pride and Prejudice’ fame holds a net worth of $5 million and Kieran Culkin also stands firm with a net worth of $5 million. Sarah Snook and Nicholas Braun both share the same stage of a net worth of $4 million. In a show that revolves around wealth, the cast has surely amassed a lot more than anyone could expect.
