Shiv Roy may have looked defeated in those final moments of Succession but she actually achieved “terrifying equality” and “remains in play” for the future, creator Jesse Armstrong said in a new interview
“Everyone has their own view, and I can tell you mine, which is that for it was a moment of equality,” Armstrong explained about Shiv’s state in the episode’s final scene when she and Tom touch hands. “Chilly, rather terrifying equality, but equality, which has never been the case in that relationship before. Tom has always been subservient. Now he has this status, but his status is contingent. That’s kind of what the whole episode is about. Shiv’s status is as all the kids are … secure.
Armstrong also shared the fear he felt when Strong improvised jumping into the river for the final episode. . “I was terrified,” the creator recalled. “He didn’t look like he was going to jump in. But once he climbed over that barrier, when you film, there are generally a lot of health and safety assessments made, and that was not our plan that day. And normally I know that if we’d even been thinking of that happening, we would have had boats and frogmen and all kinds of safety measures, which we didn’t have.
