His stage and screen appearances had already made him a respected and awarded actor, but Succession brought our third cover star, Brian Cox (@coxusa), to new heights. While rehearsing for a return to the West End with Long Day’s Journey into Night, he caught up with @imjasondiamond on his career to date and to come. Brian Cox wears @dior throughout. Excerpt below: Cox excels at playing men who supposedly have everything finally coming face to face with their limitations, but he isn’t somebody who would allow himself to be typecast. Sure, his accent is undeniable, and where he comes from geographically does carry over into his parts. He mentions doing Waiting for Godot in 2015 with Bill Paterson as Estragon (Gogo) and Cox playing Vladimir (Didi). “We played it very much in the Scottish vernacular,” he says before pointing out that coming from Scotland’s east coast helped him understand the character a bit better, despite writer Samuel Beckett being from Ireland, and the fact that the biographies of all the characters in Godot are never really hinted at. But Cox saw something familiar in his role. “Didi is so kind of… positive and he’s almost surreal sometimes. That’s very like the east coast of Scotland humour, which is all about light and everything. Whereas the west coast of Scotland is all about ‘poor me’.” So to Cox, playing the other character who waits on the country road for the man named Godot who will never come just didn’t make sense. “Gogo picking his feet and doing all that is very Glasgow…” Read the full story on port-magazine.com or preorder your copy at the link in our bio.

It’s more than just Cecil the Lion. Over 1.7M trophies have been taken from animals killed for sport and it is time to stop this barbaric practice. That’s why I am excited to wear this EXCLUSIVE t-shirt designed by @rickygervais in solidarity with @CBTHunting. Join me in this fight and get your limited eco-friendly edition t-shirt now. All proceeds will go to the campaign and pressure our politicians to ban trophy hunting. https://campaigntobantrophyhuntingstore.com/collection/elephant-clothing-by-ricky-gervais/ https://bantrophyhunting.org/ #BanTrophyHunting

Dear friends and hopefully contributors. I urge you to consider helping to avoid the loss of the Edinburgh Film house. It is an Institution that needs to be saved. It is vitally important not only to Edinburgh, but to the cultural life of Scotland. Thank you!

As an Actor, I am aware that without our Backstage and Front of House staff, my job would be impossible. To support the unsung heroes of our craft, I will be participating in ‘An Audience With’ – an intimate conversation moderated by my son, Alan Cox, to support @thetheatricalguild – a charity who are always ready to listen and to help with financial support, counseling, or mid-career training. The event will take place at the @lsqtheatre in London, on Sunday, 2nd June at 3pm. You can book tickets via their website or box office.
We’re playing golf and you’re gonna like it in @michelobULTRA’s#SuperBowlLVII commercial. #ULTRAClub
