LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: If there is one thing that the fans of ‘Succession’ will struggle with as this series concludes, is an intense symptom of missing their favorite characters. Being able to see certain cast members play the titular characters has become a norm over the last few seasons of ‘Succession’ and the absence will not be easy to deal with. Yes, that also includes Nicholas Braun who played the role of the sneaky cousin ‘Greg the Egg.’

Greg Hirsch might be distantly related to the Roy family, but is far away from their wealth, and often referred to as ‘cousin Greg’ by the whole family. Although this character was introduced as a nervous, bumbling, and fumbling man, he has grown a lot over the course of the show and Braun has played an important part in doing so. If you’re wondering where you can see Braun next, we do have some answers for you.
