Praise Kier, because the first full Severance Season 2 trailer is hours away from dropping online.
Apple TV’s hit series dropped in February 2022. Over two and a half years later, we’re still waiting for the Severance Season 2 release date.
To be fair, there’s been a few bumps in its development. After rumors of behind-the-scenes disagreements (which were debunked by Ben Stiller), the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes postponed production until the start of 2024, with the shoot wrapping in April.
It’s been near-silence ever since, with Apple revealing nothing more than sneak peeks at the new season and Season 2’s episode titles. That’s about to change.
A virtual waiting room has opened on Apple TV’s YouTube channel. The video is titled, ‘Severance – Meeting Tomorrow’, and the caption reads: “Please tame thy tempers. Severance meeting tomorrow at 9AM ET.”
It’s almost definitely the first trailer; “tame thy tempers” has to be referencing fans’ (im)patience, especially over the past few months.

“Thanks a lot Apple now I’m not going to sleep a wink tonight,” one user commented. “Aw so lovely, it looks like Milchick is going to throw a nice party for Mark. I’m sure it will be positive and affirming and not at all creepy and terrifying,” another fan joked.
The latest Severance Season 2 update stoked concerns about its ending – it looks like we’ll have to endure another cliffhanger.
Speaking to IndieWire, series writer and co-executive producer Mohamad El Masri teased: “People are interested, people are watching, and now with Season 2, you really have to sort of think about, not just what is Season 2 going to deliver in a satisfying way, but how does this set up Season 3 and beyond?”
As for whether or not the third season will take as long, he added: “I hope not, just as a fan. I hope we don’t have to keep ourselves waiting for that long. But, you know, it’s Hollywood.”
