Apple CEO Tim Cook stars in a ‘Severance’-themed promo
Still of Apple CEO Tim Cook’s appearance in a ‘Severance’-themed promo
In a new promotional video released by Apple on Friday, Tim Cook takes center stage in a “Severance”-inspired clip. In the promo, Cook portrays a “severed” employee at the enigmatic Lumon Industries, where he has undergone a fictional surgical procedure that separates his work and personal identities.
Cook’s grim-faced Outie enters the Lumon elevator; as he descends to the building’s severed floor, he breaks into a smile as his Innie persona takes over. After walking through Lumon’s maze-like hallways, the CEO is greeted by Mr. Milchick, the somewhat menacing Lumon supervisor played by Tramell Tillman.
“Tim C.,” Mr. Milchick says. “Core of the Apple. Please have a seat.” Cook obediently sits in front of a monitor, which displays “Severance Season 2” on the screen.
