Waiting was never this hard.

When an original series is released on a major streaming platform and immediately becomes a success, it’s only a matter of time that the new season is announced. Usually it takes a year to prepare a new chapter, but sometimes different factors can affect the production which will cause a major delay in it and make the fans wait a little bit more.

This is exactly what happened with Severance. The Apple TV original premiered in 2022 and became a fan favorite immediately. The show has an amazing cast, with Adam Scott playing the leading character joined by Zach Cherry, Britt Lower, and Tramell Tillman.

But what really makes the show stand out is the premise of it. Severance is actually the name of the surgery the characters have to undergo to work at a huge corporation called Lumon Industries, which makes them forget their personal life while they are at work (and basically live two separate lives).

Severance Season 2 Teaser Sets the Bar High

Season 1 ended on a cliffhanger which made the fans worry about the future of their favorite leading gang. But the newest teaser made them believe everything will be alright. Well, sort of…

Naturally, even the short clip with the new footage is filled with suspense; but fans were still happy to see some of their biggest fears debunked – at least the group is back together again.

“Shots of Mark running, Helly crawling, Dylan memory bleeding?, Burt yucking heartily with Felicia, Milchick turning the background noise up, Blink and you'll miss it shot of Regahbi with an IV bag (after Mark is reintegrated?), a lovely caricature of Burt G. And that was all 5 seconds worth of footage – this season will be intense,” Redditor anticlimacticchange said.

Another thing that amazed the fans was of course the short appearance of Gwendoline Christie. Since the moment fans heard that the brilliant actress would be joining the cast of the show, there have been many different theories about her possible role: from Helen's sister to Cobel's replacement.

But from the first glimpse of her, we see that nothing of the sort is in store for the character: if anything, she looks like a cleaner of sorts? It’s probably best for us to just calm down and wait for season 2 to finally release. Speaking of…

When Will Severance Season 2 Premiere?

Severance season 2 will premiere on AppleTV+ on January 17, 2025. So mark your calendars and maybe plan your season 1 marathon ahead!
