The new trailer for 'Severance' shows Adam Scott in an unsettling workplace thriller.
The trailer for a new thriller series from Apple TV+, Severance, was released earlier today. The show stars Adam Scott as Mark, a team leader at the nefarious Lumon Industries, who elects to undertake "severance": an invasive surgical procedure in which the recipient's memories are separated between work and play. "I have of my own free accord elected to undergo the procedure," Mark says in the trailer.
The series seems like it has everything one might expect from a series centering an enigmatic corporation, worker coercion, and weird brain chips. It's the first project that multi-hyphenate comedy star Ben Stiller has directed since helming the Showtime limited series Escape at Dannemora, about the 2015 Clinton Correctional Facility escape, back in 2018.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Scott is best known for his tenure on Parks and Recreation, in which he starred as Ben Wyatt. In May 2021, he revealed on The Ellen Show that he had been staying in old co-star's Aziz Ansari's apartment during the shooting of an undisclosed show; one might fairly presume that the project was Severance.
