Succession is the best new show on TV, and that’s a fact. If the Roy family’s ridiculous antics don’t have you thirstily checking your watch every Sunday night until 9 p.m., you’re missing TF out! What makes each character so great is that they’re all incredibly fucked-up in variously messy human ways.

One fan favorite: Tom Wambsgans. The snowballing, bumbling husband of Shiv Roy is a comic relief in the most cringey ways anytime he appears onscreen.

But did you know that the actor who plays Tom also played Mr. Darcy in the 2005 adaptation of Pride and Prejudice?

I KNOW.

The same guy whose entire character arc has screamed “scapegoat” since he first appeared onscreen is also professional brooder-in-the-rain Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy himSELF! WTF.

You’re telling me that this...

...is also the same man as this?

(The above is peak Tom Wambsgans posture, btw, neck craning to kiss ass. I love it sm.)

And this sexy man who said, like, zero words the whole 2 hours and 15 minutes of the movie...

Focus Features

...is the same as water-bottle-tantrum Tom who cannot seem to shut TF up at any given time?

HBO

Folks, Matthew Macfadyen has the range.
