Well, if you like corporate overreach and a sense of impending doom, then life in 2024 might be right up your alley.
The first trailer for Severance Season 2 keeps up the creepy vibe with more stark white corridors and fluorescent lights that first gave us the scares in 2022.
yes this is a long Wait for more episodes – but few reward patience as much as this one.
That said, if you were hoping to get a ton of plot information from the latest Severance trailer… well, we’re afraid you’re going to have to wait a little longer.
If you’re a fan of the series, you probably remember its twisted premise:
Mark Scott (Adam Scott) leads a team at Lumon Industries, a company whose employees undergo surgeries to separate their memories into work and personal lives.
Going home every night and freeing yourself from the burdens of the past (to borrow a phrase from a presidential candidate) sounds like a pretty good deal.
But as is often the case with sci-fi thrillers, progress comes with pitfalls. A big one.
As expected, the trailer shows Mark back in the office, still confused and troubled by the shady goings-on around him.
To the familiar tune of The Who’s The Outstanding Front, the beleaguered corporate drone zooms down anonymous corridor after anonymous corridor, eventually encountering some familiar faces – or familiar faces. should No matter what, be familiar with it.

Yes, the evil balloon. If that’s not enough to lure you down the Severance rabbit hole for a second time, the return of some of streaming’s most talented actors will sweeten the deal.
Adam Scott, Britt Lorre, Trammell Tillman, Zach Cherry, Jean Tullock, Michael Chenus, Dickin Lachman, John Turto Law, Christopher Walken and Patricia Arquette will all return, along with new series regular Sarah Burke.
“In Season 2, Mark and his friends learn the dire consequences of ignoring severance package obstacles, leading them further down a tragic path,” the official synopsis reads.
