Severance star Adam Scott has revealed that the show's long-awaited and much-anticipated season 2 will be on Apple TV+ in the "near future".
He said we won't have to "hold on for too much longer" in a recent interview.
Apple TV+ is home to a whole host of excellent sci-fi TV series, including For All Mankind, Foundation, Silo, and Constellation, but there's only one to have achieved a 97% score on Rotten Tomatoes.
That belongs to Severance, which first hit the streaming service on 18 February 2022. As well received as it was, though, a follow-up has been slow to appear.
Rumoured disagreements between showrunners Dan Erickson and Martin Friedman, plus 2023's writers and actors strike seemingly delayed production after initial work had started.
However, executive producer Ben Stiller teased that all its woes were long gone back in January, confirming filming had restarted, so now all we need to know is when it might finally hit our screens.
Thankfully, it won't be long now.
The show's lead, Adam Scott, has revealed in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that Severance season 2 will premiere on Apple TV+ in the "near future".
When asked to share details about the new run, he replied: "I wish I could tell you and everybody about what’s coming up because it’s going to be so much fun. I can’t wait for people to see it, but I can’t say a word.
"It’ll finally be coming out in the somewhat near future and I can’t wait for everyone to see it. That’s basically it. It was so much fun to make."
He also said that we won't have to "hold on too much longer".
This is great news for fans of the original, which is one of the most unique, clever and intriguing shows on the platform.
Scott plays Mark Scout, an employee of a company that has devised the "severance" program – a method by which employees can have their personalities split, so the person who works during the day (an innie) is autonomous to their outside life "outie".
Neither personality is meant to share the other's memories. But all changes when Scout and his colleagues start to unravel the truth.
The show also stars Britt Lower as fellow employee Helly Riggs, plus acting legends, John Tutorro, Christopher Walken and Patricia Arquette.
If you haven't watched it yet, there's never been a better time to catch up. All nine episodes are available on Apple TV+ now and we bet that once you start, you'll binge the rest in rapid fire.
