We know that Succession season 4 recently kicked off production and thanks to that, we’re all thinking about a premiere date. How can we not?

In the process of doing this, though, we do want to ask something else: Is it too early to start thinking about season 5? Isn’t it possible that HBO may be planning this upcoming season out with the following one in mind?

We know that it’s unlikely the Jeremy Strong – Brian Cox series comes back this year, even if it’d be 100% incredible if that happened. This is just a show that takes some time to make, and that is without mentioning that there are 10 episodes overall this season, one more than we have seen in the past. Also, we think that HBO will be cognizant of the fact that they’d like a season 5 even before season 4 premieres. Cox and others have mentioned that this is a show that will at least make it to season 5, and we think the network could be inclined to make an early announcement.

So what are we getting at here in the end? It’s pretty simple: Don’t be shocked if HBO plans out a season 4 premiere date so there isn’t too long a hiatus between it and season 5. They realize that there have been some really long breaks already, especially between seasons 2 and 3. It won’t be the only determining factor in a premiere date, but it will likely be on their mind.
