Washington [US], May 11 : Fans of Apple TV+'s acclaimed psychological thriller 'Severance' can expect a significantly shorter wait for its next chapter.
Actor Adam Scott has confirmed that season 3 is being planned for release "much sooner" than the gap between the first two seasons, which spanned nearly three years.
Speaking to Deadline on the red carpet at the BAFTA TV Awards, where 'Severance' was nominated for Best International Series, Scott addressed fan anticipation and production timelines.
"We're always trying to shorten the amount of time between seasons, but it's more important for it to be great than for it to be fast," he said.
He further added, "We're definitely planning on getting it out much sooner than the last round, which was three years, which is too long."
Scott, who plays Mark Scout in the series set inside the mysterious Lumon Industries, also confirmed that season 3 is set to begin production soon.
However, he avoided revealing any plot details. "The only thing about telling more is it would be a bummer," he said when asked about potential spoilers.
According to Deadline, Apple had acquired 'Severance' rights from Fifth Season in a deal worth around USD 70 million. The report also indicated that season 3 was expected to begin filming in the summer.
Season 2 of the series became Apple's most-watched show at the time of release and went on to become the most-nominated programme at the 2025 Emmys with 27 nominations, winning eight awards.
