While Brian Cox is best known for playing the billionaire media mogul Logan Roy on the hit HBO show, Succession, he has had a long and distinguished career on stage, film, and television. In this segment from Hell & High Water with John Heilemann, Brian Cox discusses his background in theater, how Shakespeare’s Titus Andronicus “saved him,” and what it was like to play Hannibal Lecter. He also shares his experience working on the post-9/11 film 25th Hour with Spike Lee, who Cox describes as one of the best directors he has ever collaborated with.
