Apple TV+ has renewed Severance for a third season, just hours after the second-season finale debuted on the streamer. The series stands firm as Apple TV+’s most-watched drama to date.
“The idea of getting to make more Severance with the greatest cast and crew on Earth is more thrilling to me than all the world’s finger traps combined,” series creator, writer and executive producer Dan Erickson said in a statement. “I can’t wait to continue spreading woe, frolic, dread and malice with these truly incredible people.”
Added executive producer and director Ben Stiller, joking about the show’s core concept of people with divided work and non-work personas, “Making Severance has been one of the most creatively exciting experiences I’ve ever been a part of. While I have no memory of this, I’m told making season three will be equally enjoyable, though any recollection of these future events will be forever and irrevocably wiped from my memory as well.”
“I couldn’t be more excited to get back to work with Ben, Dan, the incredible cast and crew, Apple and the whole Severance team,” said star and executive producer Adam Scott. “Oh hey also — not a huge deal — but if you see my innie, please don’t mention any of this to him. Thanks.”
Scott stars opposite Britt Lower, Tramell Tillman, Zach Cherry, Jen Tullock, Michael Chernus, Dichen Lachman, John Turturro, Christopher Walken, Patricia Arquette, Sarah Bock and Ólafur Darri Ólafsson.
