Today, from the Thunder Stage at CCXP24 in São Paulo, Brazil, Apple TV+ unveiled the trailer for the highly anticipated second season of “Severance.” Season two creator, writer and executive producer Dan Erickson, star and executive producer Adam Scott, and stars Britt Lower and Tramell Tillman joined thousands of fans to share an exclusive sneak peek into what lies ahead for Lumon Industries’ innies and outies. The 10-episode second season of “Severance” will debut globally on Apple TV+, with the first episode on Friday, 17 January, 2025, followed by one episode every Friday through 21 March.
The globally celebrated Emmy and Peabody Award-winning workplace thriller hails from executive producer and director Ben Stiller and stars Emmy Award nominee Scott, Lower, Tillman, Zach Cherry, Jen Tullock, Michael Chernus, Dichen Lachman, Emmy Award winner John Turturro, Academy Award winner Christopher Walken, and Academy and Emmy Award winner Patricia Arquette. Season two welcomes new series regulars Sarah Bock and Ólafur Darri Ólafsson.
In “Severance,” Mark Scout (Scott) leads a team at Lumon Industries, whose employees have undergone a severance procedure, which surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives. This daring experiment in “work-life balance” is called into question as Mark finds himself at the centre of an unravelling mystery that will force him to confront the true nature of his work … and of himself. In season two, Mark and his friends learn the dire consequences of trifling with the severance barrier, leading them further down a path of woe.
“Severance” is executive produced by Stiller, who also directs five episodes this season, in addition to directors Uta Briesewitz, Sam Donovan and Jessica Lee Gagné. The series is written, created and executive produced by Erickson. “Severance” season two is also executive produced by John Lesher, Jackie Cohn, Mark Friedman, Beau Willimon, Jordan Tappis, Donovan, Caroline Baron, Richard Schwartz, Nicholas Weinstock. In addition to starring, Scott and Arquette serve as executive producers. Fifth Season is the studio.
