Severance Season 2: A Dose of Sci-Fi Thriller

Meet the Faces of ‘Severance’

Along with Adam Scott returning to the role of Mark – a performance for which he received an Emmy nomination – the second season will also see the return of a slew of other returning names including John Turturro (The Batman), Tramell Tillman (Godfather of Harlem), Britt Lower (Man Seeking Woman), Zach Cherry (Fallout), Michael Chernus (Orange is the New Black), Christopher Walken (Dune: Part Two), Patricia Arquette (Medium), and Dichen Lachman (Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes), with Sarah Bock (Bruiser) joining as a series regular. Ben Stiller returns as the show’s director on the first five episodes and also serves as an executive producer, the latter of which he does alongside the production’s creator and writer, Dan Erickson. Other directors this season include Uta Briesewitz, Sam Donovan, and Jessica Lee Gagné.

‘Severance’s Future

Beyond Season 2, the show hasn’t received an order for a third installment, however that doesn’t mean that plans aren’t already being made. Earlier this month, one of the show’s writers, Mohamad El Masri, shared the team’s strategy for the rest of the storyline and, while he doesn’t address specifics, he teased that there’s plenty more to come.

“There was always a thinking ahead to future seasons. Even in Season 2, we were talking about, what is the end game and how does this show end? A lot of work was talking about that. I think there’s a natural overlap that happens, especially with the second season of a show, that you’ve got to keep [the momentum] going.

People are interested, people are watching, and now with Season 2, you really have to sort of think about, not just what is Season 2 going to deliver in a satisfying way, but how does this set up season 3 and beyond?”
