As Apple TV Plus premiered the season 2 finale of Severance this Friday, Apple announced that the thrilling sci-fi series will return for a third season. And it seems like fans wont have as long to wait as they did between seasons 1 and 2.
Apple CEO Tim Cook and Severance producer and director Ben Stiller also took to X with the announcement and a celebratory video. Stiller posted “So some fans are asking for Season 3 of Severance. What do you say, @tim_cook?” Cook post-quoted Stillers request, replying “Season 3 of Severance is available upon request,” with a video of notable shots of three from throughout Severances episodes.
“The idea of getting to make more Severance with the greatest cast and crew on Earth is more thrilling to me than all the worlds finger traps combined,” show creator Dan Erickson said in Apples news release on the renewal. “I cant wait to continue spreading woe, frolic, dread and malice with these truly incredible people.”
Severances first season premiered in February of 2022, and fans had to wait a long three years for season 2s January 2025 kickoff. But theres some indication that the folks behind the show are not looking to repeat that pace.

Stiller recently made an appearance on Jason and Travis Kelces podcast New Heights, and when asked if viewers would have to wait another three years for a new season, Stiller replied “definitely not. No, the plan is not, and hopefully, well be announcing what the plan is very soon.”
Severance season 3 in late 2026, then, perhaps? Or early 2027? In the meantime, maybe you could become more of the you you are by reading some Severance-vibing books.
