In the second season, Mark and his colleagues confront the dangerous consequences of tampering with the severance barrier, propelling them further into turmoil.

Severance is executive produced by Stiller, who directs five episodes this season, along with Uta Briesewitz, Sam Donovan, and Jessica Lee Gagné.
