The tension is palpable as we wait for "Severance" season 3. We've had executive producer and director Ben Stiller announce that "Severance" season 3 is coming "as fast as possible." We've had an Apple TV executive come out and say that season 3 hasn't begun production. Then, just last week, show star Adam Scott revealed that whenever the show does begin production, it could take six weeks just to film a single episode and half a year to film a full season.
But this latest update is a real bombshell. In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Stiller revealed that he won't be directing episodes for season 3. Instead, he'll be helming a feature-length film about the true story of a downed airman in occupied France during World War II and the airman's subsequent involvement in the French Resistance. That's on top of his plans to make a movie adapting Rachel Maddow's podcast "Bag Man" about disgraced Nixon-era U.S. Vice President Spiro Agnew, and existing projects "Focker-in-Law" and "Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost."
