• Stiller originally envisioned 'Severance' as a workplace comedy, but as the show developed, it became 'a little weirder and stranger and maybe less comedic' than he had planned.
• While Stiller is focused on his directing and producing duties on 'Severance,' he teased that 'anything is possible' when asked about potentially guest-starring in the show's second season.
