And career as the man im about to meet. Hes gone from Working Class dundee in the post war years to londons theatre land in the swinging 60s and then film and television stardom. Brian cox has featured in over 100 movies and played stage roles to great acclaim. But its his role as succession s logan roy, the Maniacal Media Boss and terrifying patriarch that is seeing him become a superstar. You have to be a killer.
