Sarah Snook already knows what's coming next after Succession.

The Golden Globe winner, 35, will return to the West End in January when she takes on all 26 roles in The Picture of Dorian Gray, a limited 12-week engagement at the Theatre Royal Haymarket.

Director Kip Williams will use a mix of live performance and video in the adaptation, which is described as a "gripping, witty and vibrantly contemporary production that breathes new life into Oscar Wilde's classic tale," according to the theater's website.

The two-hour show has no intermission, which should prove to be quite the undertaking for Snook.

Deadline reported that the Australian actress will begin rehearsals in the fall, during which she will also film some of the characters to interact with onstage — a form of multimedia described as "cine-theatre."

Snook, who earned a Golden Globe and two Emmy nominations for her portrayal of Shiv Roy on the HBO series, made her West End debut as Hilda Wangel in 2016's The Master Builder revival.
