Severance was renewed despite its dramatic first-season cliffhanger, and production for its second installment is underway. While release may still take time, the cast and crew of Apple TV+’s popular Severance have kept fans up-to-date about upcoming episodes by providing news of new ones being shot.
Severance was a surprise hit that combined elements from Black Mirror with heartbreaking drama and sci-fi elements. It earned 14 Emmy nominations, garnered critical acclaim, and generated an enthusiastic following – plus far-flung fan theories! Season two promises even greater challenges and thrills!
Production for the new episodes began in October 2022 and will run through May of 2023; however, due to an ongoing strike by Writers Guild of America writers will need to come to an agreement with studios before filming can resume.
Cast of the upcoming episodes includes Adam Scott (Mark Scout), Patricia Arquette (Harmony Cobel), Zach Cherry (Dylan), Britt Lower (Helly R/Helena), Sydney Cole Alexander, Jen Tullock (Devon), Michael Chernus (Ricken), and Tramell Tillman. Season 2 will pick up where Episode One left off – expect some exciting developments when Innies attempt to infiltrate Outie culture!
Severance’s first season ended with an intriguing cliffhanger, leaving fans excitedly anticipating what the show has in store for its second run. Series creator Dan Erickson promises an “expansion of the world.”
Lumon Industries, a biotech company known for separating people’s personalities into two entities – an “innie” who works at Lumon and an “outie”, who live their regular life – is at the center of this unnerving sci-fi drama. An “innie” must endure an endless nine-to-five cycle where repetitive and meaningless tasks must be performed at work until she reaches freedom again.
Expanding its universe, the show will welcome an ensemble cast that features familiar names like Gwendoline Christie from Game of Thrones and Alia Shawkat from Arrested Development. Christopher Walken will return as Irving’s playful love interest Burt.
Apple had planned on filming Severance season 2 this summer; however, production was pushed back due to the Writers Guild of America strike. Apple later confirmed that filming had resumed but did not specify when its premiere might occur; each season could take 16 months of shooting!
Apple TV+ has confirmed Severance will return for another action-packed season in 2024, following its critically acclaimed first season. Creator Dan Erickson and executive producer Ben Stiller have kept mum on details regarding Season 2, but it seems likely it will pick up after Season 1’s nail-biting cliffhanger ending. Mark Scout (Adam Scott), Helly Rhee (Britt Lower), Irving (Zach Cherry) and Dylan (Patricia Arquette) may return to working at Lumon Industries’ Macrodata Refinement department as before Season 1.
This series follows Lumon’s controversial “severance” procedure, in which employees’ non-work memories are split away from their work memories, creating two lives that cannot interact or share one another. This harrowing workplace drama quickly became fan and critic favorites alike, boasting an astonishing 98% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Reports indicated that filming for Season Two began in October 2015, with star Adam Scott confirming it via Twitter with a water-drop emoji. Unfortunately, production was later put on hold due to the Writers Guild of America strike which has affected numerous films and television series.
Production on Severance Season 2 has temporarily stopped but should resume this summer. Exact release details remain unknown at this time but according to its original production schedule, it should likely hit screens sometime during 2024.
After garnering critical acclaim and 14 Emmy nominations, Apple TV+’s hit show Severance will return for a second season – although fans may need to wait sometime. Filming was set to begin October 31, but due to a writers’ strike production may need reshoots, delaying its release date further.
Adam Scott, Zach Cherry, Britt Lower, Sydney Cole Alexander, Jen Tullock and Dichen Lachman will all reprise their roles for Season 2.
Lumon Industries and their revolutionary “severance” program. This medical procedure separates an employee’s work life from their home life, leaving them as two separate beings. As part of a Kafkaesque experiment, workers in Lumon’s Macrodata Refinement division must dedicate themselves to mindless data-crunching tasks on behalf of Lumon.
Helly (Britt Lower), who joins Mark Scout (Adam Scott) and Dylan George (Zach Cherry) is unnerving to her colleagues but proves one of the finest series on TV this year. However, Severance stands out with its superb writing and acting; making for one of television’s premier series this year.
