Report: ‘Severance’ Season 3 Due ‘Much Sooner’
Jake Kanter and Nada Aboul Kheir reported last week for Deadline the next season of Severance is planned to premiere “much sooner” than Season 2 did in January 2025. The comments were made by star Adam Scott, who gets top billing as Mark S. in the show, during a red carpet interview at this year’s BAFTA TV Awards, held in London.
As Kanter and Kheir noted, there was a three-year wait between the end of Season 1 and the release of Season 2. According to Scott, “we’re always trying to shorten the amount of time between seasons, but it’s more important for it to be great than for it to be fast.” He also said the production team is “definitely planning” on getting the third season out sooner than later while conceding the aforementioned gap was “too long.”
Severance absolutely is on my seemingly ever-growing list of shows to rewatch, but I may move it further up the list after writing this post. It is undoubtedly one of my most favorite TV shows of the last few years, maybe even of all-time. Many of my favorite movies and television shows are Apple TV properties; Dickinson, For All Mankind, The Morning Show, and CODA are numerous other titles I also dearly love. My jaw hit the floor at the end of the Season 2 finale—no spoilers from me here, go watch it yourself—and I can’t wait for the day Apple announces the start date for Season 3. Praise Kier.
Season 3 will begin shooting “very soon,” Scott added.
As I wrote last month about Ted Lasso returning, immersing myself in known quantities like my favorite shows is one way of practicing self-care as I try to stay afloat amid my oftentimes dark battle with maintaining my highly precarious mental health of late.
Deadline posted a clip to X with Scott’s comments on Season 3. I’ve embedded it here.
