Severance (Apple TV+): season 2 finally reveals an excited first teaser

It took almost three years, but the best Apple TV+ series is finally back! Season 2 of Severance was in fact revealed this Wednesday via a first intriguing and exciting teaser.

This new chapter arrives on January 17, 2025 on Apple's streaming platform and also on Canal+.

Return to Lumon Industries

Remember, the series Severance tells the story of Mark Scout, who leads a small team within Lumon Industries whose employees have agreed to undergo a surgical operation called “dissociation.”

This separates the memories of their professional life from those of their private life. So, when they are at work they don't know what they are doing outside, and vice versa.

In this anticipated season 2, Mark and his team will learn the hard way that we don't joke with the boundaries of dissociation.

Let's say it straight away, Severance is one of the best series of recent years. Unlikely mix of Black Mirror, Lost And The Officeit is a delight of an anticipation series, distilling its mystery and its cliffhangers with mastery. Its mastered and anxiety-provoking production, its five-star casting and its crafted plot hook you and don't let go until the last second.

The series created a sensation when it was released in February 2022, and was even nominated 14 times for the prestigious Emmy Awards, for two awards (best music and best credits). But the production of its second season experienced numerous interruptions, particularly due to strikes in Hollywood.

Created by Dan Erickson, the series is produced by Ben Stiller, who also directed five episodes of this season 2. The other episodes are directed by Uta Briesewitz (The Wheel of Time), Jessica Lee Gagne and Sam Donovan.

In terms of casting, this new chapter of ten episodes sees the return of Adam Scott (Parks and Recreation) in the lead role, alongside Britt Lower, Zach Cherry, Patricia Arquette, John Turturro and Christopher Walken.

The first two episodes of season 2 will be available on January 17, 2025 on Apple TV+ and Canal+, then a new episode will be available every Friday until March 21.

As a reminder, Apple TV+ content is available via Canal+ and myCanal from the first subscription level.
