Finally, the wait is over. After three long years, "Severance" season 2 is finally here, with the first episode debuting on Apple TV Plus last night. The premiere takes no time launching us back into the high-stakes environment of Lumon’s Severed Floor, and star Adam Scott says he channeled his inner Tom Cruise for the opening scene's pulse-pounding dash.
As we saw in the season 2 teaser trailer, the latest season kicks off with Mark (Scott) sprinting through Lumon's eerily white halls looking for the wellness center after the troubling revelation he had at the end of season 1. For almost two minutes, he darts around like a rat in a maze as the camera's shifting angles build a sense of panic. As for the actual cardio element, while Scott has said he didn't do any particular training to get in shape for the scene, he did take cues from the "Mission: Impossible" star as his running inspiration.
