Apple TV+ unveils ‘Severance’ season two teaser, premieres January 17, 2025
The highly anticipated second season of Apple TV+’s hit workplace thriller “Severance” will make its global debut on Friday, January 17, 2025.
Apple TV+ on Wednesday debuted the teaser for the second season of its globally celebrated Emmy and Peabody Award-winning workplace thriller, “Severance,” sharing a glimpse into the mysteries ahead at Lumon Industries. Directed and executive produced by Ben Stiller and created, written and executive produced by Dan Erickson, the 10-episode second season of “Severance” will debut globally on Apple TV+ with the first episode on Friday, January 17, 2025 followed by one episode every Friday through March 21.
In “Severance,” Mark Scout (Adam 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 center of an unraveling 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.
Season two reunites its ensemble cast of stars, including Emmy Award nominee Scott, Britt Lower, Tramell 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, and welcomes new series regular Sarah Bock.
“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 and Nicholas Weinstock. In addition to starring, Scott and Arquette serve as executive producers. Fifth Season is the studio.
The complete first season of “Severance” is now streaming on Apple TV+.
