Apple Officially Renews ‘Severance’ for Season 3: What to Expect Next

After months of speculation, Apple TV+ has officially renewed the hit sci-fi thriller Severance for a third season. The news comes as a relief to fans who were left hanging after the mind-bending Season 2 finale. With its gripping storyline, eerie office setting, and deep psychological themes, Severance has cemented itself as one of Apple TV+’s most acclaimed series.

So, what’s next for Mark, Helly, Irving, and Dylan? Will we finally uncover the full truth behind Lumon Industries? Let’s dive into everything we know so far about Season 3 of Severance.

A Quick Recap: What Happened in Seasons 1 & 2?

For those who need a refresher, Severance follows employees at Lumon Industries, a mysterious corporation that uses a surgical procedure to separate employees’ work and personal memories. This creates two versions of each person:

• “Innie” (Work Version): Exists only inside Lumon, with no knowledge of the outside world.
• “Outie” (Personal Life Version): Lives outside Lumon but has no memory of what happens at work.

As the employees unravel the dark secrets of Lumon, they realize the true cost of their severance—and the ethical dangers of controlling human consciousness.

🚨 Season 2 Cliffhanger

• Mark and his team briefly broke free of their “severed” state, leading to shocking revelations about their real-world lives.
• The season ended on a major cliffhanger, with Helly learning her true identity, Irving discovering a hidden connection, and Mark realizing his dead wife might still be alive.

With so many loose ends, Season 3 is expected to take the mystery to a whole new level.
