Succession season 3 release date and time

Succession season 3 premieres today (Sunday, October 17) at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max.

Following Kendall's (Jeremy Strong) whistleblowing betrayal of his father, Logan (Brian Cox) is in a perilous position and scrambling to secure familial, political, and financial alliances. Shiv (Sarah Snook) and Roman (Kieran Culkin) contemplate where they stand and what they hope to gain from their father and brother's feud.
