When you think about it, Succession is really just a battle between tall and short people. thekaitling explains
Brody appears in the fourth episode of the season, titled “Lion in the Meadow.” He plays Josh Aaronson, a Waystar shareholder losing trust in the company’s leadership amid the feud between Logan and Kendall as well as the Department of Justice’s ongoing investigation into the company. Brody only appears opposite Cox and Strong—who are reportedly only a few inches shorter than he is—as their characters try to reassure Aaronson things are OK.
But Brody is just a warm-up act for the seventh episode, “Too Much Birthday,” which really puts the height of various actors into perspective, for that is the episode Skarsgard’s character, Lukas Matsson, is finally introduced. The CEO of a tech company Waystar wants to acquire in order to become a major player in the streaming and sports betting industries, Matsson is seated next to an illuminated fake tree when we first meet him at Kendall’s 40th birthday party. It’s awkward, to say the least.
That difference is even more pronounced in the eighth episode, “Chiantishire,” which is directed by Mark Mylod, an executive producer who has helmed several episodes and is likely experienced in hiding height disparity between cast members. In that episode, everyone has traveled to Italy for Caroline’s impending nuptials to a man brave enough to wear bright-colored pants in public.
In the scene that immediately follows, Mylod attempts to downplay the ongoing battle between tall and short people by relying on an optical illusion once favored by Peter Jackson during the filming of. It makes people appear either taller or shorter than they are in real life.
For many reasons, it’s preferable that one’s on-screen subjects appear equal in height . And as a representative of short people, I appreciate any and all attempts at equality. However, in this instance, highlighting the difference between Skarsgard and Culkin might have been worth it. Not only is it visually funny—I can say this because I don’t even crack 5’2”—but it would have further exaggerated the fact Skarsgard’s Matsson currently holds all the power in this relationship.
