Severance will premiere its 10-episode second season on the streamer on Jan. 17, 2025, followed by one episode every Friday through March 21.

In the trailer, Mark races up and down the barren hallways of the workplace thriller’s dystopian offices, as the rushed voices of season one’s epic finale play overhead. The return will mark two and a half years since the show first premiered in February 2022.

“In season two, Mark and his friends learn the dire consequences of trifling with the severance barrier, leading them further down a path of woe,” a press release reads.
