Apple’s mind-bending sci-fi thriller, Severance, has made a triumphant return with two episodes already released and eight more to come before the season finale on March 21st. The series has lived up to expectations so far, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats and questioning everything. As the mystery of the show unfolds, CNET had the opportunity to speak with the series star, Adam Scott, director Ben Stiller, and showrunner Dan Erickson to get a glimpse of what’s in store for the rest of season 2.
In season 1, viewers were left pondering the reasons behind why the characters of Mark, Helly, Irving, and Dylan chose to undergo severance. Each character has their own unique story and it’s likely that season 2 will delve deeper into their motivations.
One of the biggest mysteries from season 1 revolves around Gemma and Ms. Casey’s uncanny resemblance. The reveal at the end of episode 7 left audiences wondering about the true nature of their connection and how Lumon Industries managed to pull off such a feat. This storyline will continue to play a significant role in season 2, especially for Mark’s character.
Harmony Cobel’s devotion to Lumon Industries and her enigmatic past will also be explored further in the upcoming season. As the show expands its focus beyond the confines of Lumon, viewers can expect to learn more about the characters’ personal lives and struggles.
With questions still lingering about Irving’s paintings, Helena Eagan’s true motives, and the impact of severance on the characters’ identities, Severance season 2 promises to unravel even more mysteries and keep audiences guessing until the very end.
