Succession star Brian Cox has revealed the specific condition heβd need to return to his iconic character Logan Roy for a spin-off film.
The actor, 77, was killed off in the fourth and final season which aired last year so anymore potential storylines are currently a mystery.
But asked by Variety if it could be on the cards Brian said: βWeβll see. If itβs good enough and [series creator] Jesse Armstrong wants to do it, I might do it.βΒ
He added however that Jesse ended the show at the right time. He said: βWhat I love about it and what I love about Jesse Armstrong is we donβt go past our sell-by date.
βA lot of American shows do go past their sell-by dates. Weβve left people wanting. You always want to keep people wanting.βΒ

The widely-acclaimed HBOΒ series follows the Roy familyβs high-stakes battle for control of a global business empire.
Succession and restaurant dramedy The Bear dominated the Emmy Awards on Monday, earning six trophies each as Hollywood handed out its top accolades for television at a star-studded ceremony which featured a star-studded red carpet.
Brian loved playing Logan on the popular TV show. However, heβs insisted that the patriarch of the Roy family is a deeply misunderstood character.
Brian explained on the EMMY red carpet: βI loved playing Logan, I really did. But I thought he was one of the most misunderstood characters ever.
βHe was rough and he was crude and he told people like it is β¦ but all he wanted was for his own family to take over but none of them were up to the mark, you know?β
Brian previously admitted that the popularity of Succession has caused him to lose his βanonymityβ.
The actor conceded that the show has changed his life in a dramatic way.
He told the Irish Times newspaper: βItβs a global success. And I am now recognised wherever I go.
