Succession’s Kieran Culkin Puts This Wild Culkins vs. Skarsgards Meme To Rest

Summary:

• Both Kieran Culkin and Alexander Skarsgård who starred in HBO’s hit Succession come from the families of actors.
• Based on that fact, fans on social media created a meme discourse about whose family would win in a fight.
• Kieran Culkin himself put an end to an argument giving a win to the Skarsgård family.

In 2024, no one needs to be reminded of the power of the Internet. It affects many areas of our daily lives, including the entertainment industry.

For many years, physical paper copies were the only way for fans to find out more about their idols, and now all you need is a strong Wi-Fi connection and a deep dive into social media.

Even those stars who prefer to stay away from social media can't escape the fate of being bombarded by memes. In 2023, we all witnessed Cillian Murphy being taught about Barbies, and now it's time for Succession's Kieran Culkin to take the lead.

However, he had a much tougher task.

Who Will Win In A Fight: Skarsgård Or Culkin

Back in February 2023, the Internet was obsessed with one question: who would win in a fight between the Culkin and Skarsgård brothers?

While the Skarsgårds have a certain physique advantage, some fans suggested that the Culkins could use some cheating methods and start biting their opponents instead.

The only person who could really put that argument to rest would be one of the families' representatives.

Thanks to ET's Emmy's coverage interview, Kieran Culkin had the chance to step forward and provide the answer:

“They’re huge. They’re huge, we would lose, it’s not even a [question]. Size matters, I don’t care what anyone says. You give us a couple of blades and you tie an arm behind their back, or something like that, or break an ankle on each Skarsgård, and maybe we have a shot,” the actor stated.

Fortunately, there is no need to prove Culkin's words and actually hurt one of the Skarsgård siblings. However, the Internet would definitely explode if two families decided to play out the fight for the cameras one day, so keep an eye out - you never know what crazy idea these brothers might come up with.

Until then, let's enjoy the Culkin-Skarsgård collaboration that's already available to us in the form of visual art. Succession, the show that has taken the awards season by storm, is available to stream on Max. Keep an eye out for updates on new potential projects!
