"Apple Officially Renews Severance for Season 3"

Apple has officially announced the renewal of the hit series *Severance* for a much-anticipated Season 3. The sci-fi psychological thriller, brought to life by Ben Stiller and Dan Erickson, continues to reign supreme as the most popular show on Apple TV+. Following the success of its second season, which has become the most-watched series on the platform, fans are eager to dive back into the mysterious world of Lumon Industries. For a detailed analysis of Season 2, check out IGN's review of *Severance* Season 2.

Ben Stiller, expressing his enthusiasm for the project, stated, “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 3 will be equally enjoyable, though any recollection of these future events will be forever and irrevocably wiped from my memory as well.” Adam Scott, star and executive producer, 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.”

Season 3 of Severance is available upon request.

Apple's official synopsis for *Severance* reads: "In *Severance*, Mark Scout (Scott) 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 2, Mark and his friends learn the dire consequences of trifling with the severance barrier, leading them further down a path of woe. Season 2 welcomes new series regulars Sarah Bock and Ólafur Darri Ólafsson."

While an exact release date for Season 3 remains under wraps, Ben Stiller, in a recent chat on the *New Heights* podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce, reassured fans that the wait won't be as long as the three-year gap between Seasons 1 and 2. “No, the plan is not to [wait three years],” Stiller said. “Definitely not. Hopefully, we’ll be announcing what the plan is very soon. That will not be that!” He explained that the delay between seasons was due to a writers' and actors' strike, and the extensive shooting and editing process, which took 186 days for Season 2. “But thank goodness that the audience was there when we came back on,” he added.
