Do you want the good news or the bad news first? Here’s the good news — after two years of waiting, Severance season 2 finally has an officially-confirmed release date! The bad news? It’s not coming out until next year.
Shared within a brand new trailer for the second season of the hit Apple TV Plus show, Severance season 2 will finally start streaming on Apple TV Plus on January 17 2025. It’ll be a 10 episode run, released one episode a week, concluding on March 21, 2025.
That’ll be almost three years after the first series debuted, the culmination of a protracted and difficult development cycle that is relatively unusual for the streaming industry.

Severance season 2 trailer
The new trailer doesn't give us a huge amount of new information to go on regarding the content of the new series, showing Adam Scott's Mark and Britt Lower's Helly again descending into the mysterious offices of Lumon. Except, of course, this time we know that they know what's going on in the outside world, no longer constrained by their 'severed' existences in the office.
The big reveal is the presence of Gwendoline Christie — "You should've left" says her character to round off the trailer. But that's all she wrote for a glimpse of the expanded cast, which is also set to add Arrested Development star Alia Shawkat, Merritt Wever, Bob Balaban, Robby Benson, John Noble, Stefano Carannate and Ólafur Darri Ólafsson to its ranks.
