Severance Season 2 Story
We don't have a lot of specific information about the plot of Severance Season 2 yet, but the first season left us with some major questions and intriguing cliffhangers. Remember how the innies of the Macro-Data Refinement department gained control of their outie bodies? The consequences of that will be a big part of season 2, as Lumon will try to deal with the rebellion without jeopardizing their outie employees.
Season 2 could also shed more light on some of the mysteries surrounding Lumon, including:
- What happened to Mark's wife Gemma?
- What are Lumon's true intentions with the Severance Chips?
- What's the deal with Irving's outside life?
- Will we see more of Helena Eagan (the villain of Severance season 2 according to creator Dan Erickson)?
We're definitely expecting some major twists and turns in the new season.
Severance Season 2 Trailer
We have a brief trailer for Severance season 2, which gives us our first glimpse of Gwendoline Christie's new character. She warns the innies that they "should have left" – ominous! It's probably just a taste of what's to come, and we're expecting a full-length trailer soon.
