The universe of Severance may continue to grow. Ben Stiller has shared that he often envisions two spinoff concepts for the acclaimed Apple TV+ series. Though these ideas remain as early conceptual directions the franchise could explore, fans of the hit show will be pleased to learn that its creator is continuously developing new narratives set within this intriguing world. No specific details were disclosed regarding the prospective series that could build upon the legacy Severance has established over its two seasons.
Season two wrapped up earlier this year, concluding with a gripping cliffhanger where Mark (Adam Scott) attempts to escape with Helly (Britt Lower). As the duo forged ahead, alarms were triggered, leaving viewers eager for what comes next. The wait between the first and second seasons was extensive—around three years—but the creative team is already immersed in crafting the third season. While a precise release timeline remains unconfirmed, the upcoming season is expected to arrive sooner than its predecessor.
Set in a world where individuals are split into dual personas—one for work and another for personal life, each unaware of the other—Severance explores the intense conflicts that arise from this psychological divide. This premise could serve as a foundation for the potential spinoff series. Here’s what Ben Stiller mentioned regarding the envisioned extensions to the Severance universe.
There are two specific ideas — that I won’t tell you — that we’ve talked about internally as possible spinoff ideas. They are nascent.
Apple TV+ has brought on a range of talented actors to complete the cast of Severance. Zach Cherry plays Dylan George, a Lumon employee intrigued by the occasional perks the company provides. He stars alongside Tramell Tillman, who takes on the role of Seth Milchick.
As the show progresses, its ensemble continues to grow. Season two introduced Sarah Bock as Eustice Huang, the Deputy Manager of the Severed floor. With a third season on the horizon, the countdown is on for Severance to return to television. Only time will reveal whether Ben Stiller’s spinoff concepts will materialize.
Both seasons of Severance are currently streaming on Apple TV+.
