Apple has announced that Severance will return for season 2. The series, from Ben Stiller and Dan Erickson, has been a big hit for Apple TV+.

From Apple:

“It’s really exciting to see the response from people who are loving the show — and the level of fan engagement,” said Stiller. “It has been a long road bringing ‘Severance' to television. I first read Dan’s pilot over five years ago. It has always been a multi-season story, and I’m really happy we get to continue it. I’m grateful to our partners at Apple TV+ who have been behind it the whole way. Praise Keir!”
John Turturro, Britt Lower, Christopher Walken, Tramell Tillman, Zach Cherry and Adam Scott in “Severance”.
“Thanks to creator Dan Erickson, the brilliant Ben Stiller, and an incomparable cast and crew, ‘Severance’ has imagined an existence that‘s equal parts riveting and enthralling as viewers around the globe can’t get enough of these rich characters,” said Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+. “We’re excited to go deeper into this wholly unique world and unpack more layers of Lumon in season two.”

Fun Fact: Ben Stiller discovered the creator of the show's amazing, trippy opening credit sequence on Instagram. Check him out @extraweg.

The first season of 'Severance' is available to watch via the TV app. The thrilling season finale premieres this Friday, April 8th
