The drama continues at Lumon Industries. 

On the heels of the second season of Severance, the thriller series has been recommissioned for a third season.

The renewal doesn’t come as much of a surprise, with Severance garnering both critical acclaim and a loyal viewership. According to Deadline, the show has broken records as Apple TV+’s most-watched series, surpassing Ted Lasso.

Executive producer and director Ben Stiller said:

“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.”

Star and executive producer Adam Scott added:

“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. Oh hey also — not a huge deal — but if you see my innie, please don’t mention any of this to him. Thanks.”

If you’re not on board yet, here’s the setup:

In Severance, Mark Scout leads a team at Lumon Industries, whose employees have undergone a severance procedure that 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.

Understandably, there’s no word on when we might expect the new season. There was an almost three year gap between the first two, partially due to the Hollywood writers and actors’ strike.

However, appearing on Jason and Travis Kelce’s New Heights podcast, Ben Stiller suggests that the show should return much sooner.
