‘Succession’ Star Arrested on DUI Charges

Nicholas Braun, best known for playing Cousin Greg on HBO’s hit series Succession, was arrested for driving under the influence in New Hampshire last weekend.

According to TMZ, the 37-year-old actor was pulled over by police in Moultonborough on Friday evening. He was taken to Carroll County Jail but was released on his own recognizance and did not have to pay bail.

Braun did not have a mugshot taken because the police camera was not working. His official charges are DUI Impairment and Operating Without Lights. He is scheduled to appear in court for arraignment on September 16.

Braun is widely recognized for his role on Succession, which aired from 2018 to 2023. He earned three Emmy nominations for Outstanding Supporting Actor during the show’s four-season run.

In recent years, he has had smaller roles in films, including Dream Scenario (2023), a satire starring Nicolas Cage, and the 2024 biopic Saturday Night, in which he played both Jim Henson and Andy Kaufman.
