Actor Nicholas Braun, best known as Cousin Greg from HBO’s hit series ‘Succession’, found himself in trouble over the weekend. The 37-year-old star was arrested in New Hampshire on suspicion of driving under the influence and operating a vehicle without lights.
According to reports, police in Moultonborough pulled him over on Friday night. In Carroll County jail, Braun spent about an hour there before release.
He did not have to post bail, and he didn’t even get a mugshot taken because the jail’s camera wasn’t working at the time. He is now going to appear in court on September 16.
Braun’s arrest comes at a time when his career is still in the spotlight. Millions of viewers know him as the awkward yet lovable Cousin Greg in ‘Succession’. This role earned him three Emmy nominations during the show’s run from 2018 to 2023.
