The Hollywood ReporterStory by Angie Han
scrn logline
Apple TV+'s 'Severance' delves deeper into the nightmarish reality of corporate capitalist dystopia, pushing its characters and audiences to their breaking point.
beat sheet
- The show expands its world beyond the oppressed workers, exploring the tensions and indignities experienced by middle managers like the incredible Tramell Tillman's Mr. Milchick, who must swallow his own share of corporate callousness.
- The core relationships in season 2 become even more complex, as the self-aware 'innies' refuse to accept a return to the status quo, pitting them not just against their higher-ups, but also their own 'outie' selves, in a gripping battle for autonomy and humanity.
