Severance – S02 Trailer (German) HD
Sci-Fi satire Severance: One of the best series of recent years
A chip in the brain separates the work ego (Innie) and the private life self (Outie) of the employees of the Macrodata Refinement department Lumen Industries. The private personality doesn’t even know what it is for to go to work every day – and the work persona doesn’t know any world except that of the office. In season 1, however, the new department head Mark S. (Adam Scott) starts asking questions and only finds more puzzles instead of answers. Among other things: What is the company actually working on?
This is what continues in season 2 of Severance: After some of the Macrodata team were able to take a brief look into the lives of their outies, Mr. Milchik (Tramell Tillman) tries to convince Mark S. to return to work. Apparently with success, because in the preview we see him again along with Helly (Britt Lower), Irving (Jon Turturro) and Dylan (Zach Cherry) in the aggressively lit office space. Above all, he wants to find out one thing: what happened to his wife Gemma (Dichen Lachman), who was believed to be dead and was seen in season 1 as a workplace therapist.
But the mysterious superior Mrs. Cobel (Patricia Arquette) warns Mark in the trailer: “Mark, there will be no happy ending for the two of you.”
Created by Dan Erickson, the series is directed by Ben Stiller, who most people know better as a comedy actor. New additions to the cast of season 2 include Gwendoline Christie (Game of Thrones) and John Noble (Fringe).
When does Season 2 of Severance come online?
Ten new episodes of Severance will be released starting this year January 17, 2025 weekly online on Apple TV+. This means that the second season of the sci-fi workplace satire is even one episode longer than the first season: overtime, so to speak.
