In the wake of Logan Roy's death,cat3movie pretty much every other Successiondetail seems kind of inconsequential at the moment.

But once the dust has settled and everyone starts scrabbling for power again, there may be a smartphone-related detail that gives us a clue as to how things might shake up.

On Monday, TikTokker @iwannabeonline shared a video with the caption, "Not everyone using Apple phones except Tom. IYKYK." The footage shows shots of Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Roman (Kieran Culkin), and Greg (Nicholas Braun) using iPhones in the latest episode, alongside a shot of Tom using an Android phone.

So why is this relevant? Some kind of subtle metaphor for the divide between the Roy kids and the higher-ups on the plane along with Gerri (J. Smith-Cameron), who also doesn't use an iPhone?

Possibly, but there's also a bigger reason: Apple famously doesn't allow villains to use iPhones. Knives Outdirector Rian Johnson confirmed this back in 2020 in an interview with Vanity Fair, saying, "Apple, they let you use iPhones in movies, but — and this is very pivotal if you're watching a mystery movie — bad guys cannot have iPhones on camera."

Logan, it's crucially worth noting, also used an Android phone before his death.

• 'Succession': Here's how Brian Cox reacted when he found out about Logan's death
• 'Succession' Season 4, episode 3: The wedding detail that was a big clue
• The internet reacts to *that* shocking 'Succession' twist
• The 'Succession' Season 4 poster hinted at Logan Roy's biggest moment

So what exactly does this mean for the rest of the series? Well, assuming Apple's guidelines are still correct, it could suggest that Tom is entering full villain arc for the remainder of the show. Rather than Logan's death bringing him closer to his soon-to-be-ex-wife Shiv (Sarah Snook), maybe he'll end up leading the opposition to Logan's kids for control of the company?

Succession is now streaming on HBO Max, with new episodes airing at 9 p.m. ET Sundays on HBO and HBO Max.
