Severance's Ben Stiller and Adam Scott Explain Why Season 2 Is Already Answering Big Questions
131Editor's note: The below interview contains spoilers for Severance Season 2 Episodes 1-6.
Apple TV+'s Severance initially premiered with a lot of questions for viewers, but none may have been as big as the one that dropped during the Season 1 finale, after the Macrodata Refinement team rebelled against Lumon Industries by triggering the Overtime Contingency, activating their innies in the outside world. Once Mark's (Adam Scott) innie realizes that his outie's wife, Gemma (Dichen Lachman), is not only alive, but also just so happens to be Lumon wellness counselor "Ms. Casey," the clock starts ticking in terms of that bombshell reveal being successfully transferred from one side of his severed consciousness to the other. Season 2 doesn't waste any time in allowing Mark's outie to learn the truth, but in typical Severance fashion, the answer to one question sparks a ton more questions — like what Lumon is really doing to Gemma, and why.
Ahead of the show's long-awaited return, Collider had the opportunity to speak with several cast and crew about some of Season 2's most game-changing moments, including Adam Scott and Severance director and producer Ben Stiller. Over the course of the interview, which you can watch above or read below, Scott and Stiller discuss why Season 2 resolves the Season 1 finale so quickly, the very cold experience of filming the ORTBO in Episode 4, how they approached the staging and directing of Mark's reintegration process on-screen, and more.
