"Succession" star Jeremy Strong on his road to success

Nestled between a New York City church and a small Mediterranean restaurant, the Rattlestick Theater, on Waverly Place, conjures up powerful memories for Jeremy Strong. "I mean, everything has changed, and nothing has changed," he said, while visiting along with Turner Classic Movies host and "Sunday Morning" contributor Ben Mankiewicz.

Back in 2011, Strong was a struggling actor, appearing there as an Afghanistan war veteran in the off-Broadway play "Paraffin."

"This was, like, a 60-seat theater, where the bathroom is on the stage, and you could smell the falafel stand downstairs, but it didn't matter," he said.
