The Roy family and the Corleones — power as inheritance
→ The Godfather (1972)
Jesse Armstrong has cited The Godfather as the direct template for Succession. The Roy patriarch Logan maps onto Vito Corleone; Kendall is Michael — the reluctant heir who becomes the monster. Each season finale mirrors a Corleone baptism.

Logan Roy and Charles Foster Kane — the patriarch as void
→ Citizen Kane (1941)
The show opens with Logan's decline, just as Kane opens with its subject's death. Both men built empires and die alone, their obituaries written before they understand what they wanted. Armstrong has cited Kane as the ur-text.
