\u00a0It\u2019s really exciting to see the response from people who are loving the show \u2013 and the level of fan engagement. It has been a long road bringing \u2018Severance\u2019 to television. I first read Dan\u2019s pilot over five years ago. It has always been a multi-season story and I\u2019m really happy we get to continue it. I\u2019m grateful to our partners at Apple TV+ who have been behind it the whole way. Praise Kier!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
