Summary

The Apple Original series Severance takes place in a world where people can split their memories in two — and create completely separate selves for inside and outside the workplace. It was a hit when it debuted in 2022, and in the season finale the characters’ “innies” and “outies” collide in a shocking cliff-hanger. In the three years since, fans have been waiting for — and sharing their theories about — what might happen next. Apple News In Conversation host Shumita Basu sat down with executive producer and director Ben Stiller and star and executive producer Adam Scott to talk about the new season, out on Apple TV+ Jan. 17.
