New Trailer For Ben Stiller's SEVERANCE Looks Delightfully Creepy
Apple TV+ has released a new trailer for their workplace thriller, Severance. Directed by Ben Stiller and with an all star cast including Adam Scott, Patricia Arquette, John Turturro, Britt Lower, Zach Cherry, Dichen Lachman, Jen Tullock, Tramell Tillman, Michael Chernus, and Christopher Walken, this looks like a really creepy concept.
Mark Scout (Adam Scott) leads a team at Lumon Industries, whose employees have undergone a severance procedure, which surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives. This daring experiment in ‘work-life balance’ is called into question as Mark finds himself at the center of an unraveling mystery that will force him to confront the true nature of his work… and of himself.
The idea of severing memories of work and personal life in order to achieve a work life balance is so crazy, but somehow really believable that a company would think it’s a good idea is what makes this show look compelling. The first two episodes will air February 18 with the rest of the nine episodes releasing weekly.
