Jeremy Strong stays, as ever, on Kendall’s group. But the star stated accomplishment is not constantly helpful for the recuperating addict, who we have actually seen “struggle and fail” in the previous 2 seasons.
“Now, he’s in a place where he’s done the thing he’s never been able to do and found the courage to do it. And there is this hope I think that we all have as people, that if we achieve certain things or we do certain things, it will fill some void in us and make us full,” Strong showed. “[But] when that thing fills that space, you’re much more f– ked than you were previously.”
He continued, “It’s class five white water rapids for Kendall. I think once again he feels set up to get what he wants and once again, in very ingenious ways on the writer’s part, it’s thwarted and subverted.”
In truth, this was Kendall’s fate from the conception of the series. Strong remembered going to the author’s space some years back and seeing a note that checked out: “Kendall wins but loses.”
“And we basically see that dynamic played out across all of the seasons, really. And it’s different every time and it craters deeper every time,” the star shared.
