It’s been three years since Severance‘s first season, and the trailer for season two reintroduces us to Adam Scott’s Mark S., returning to the Lumon offices after he let his “innie” loose on the outside world and learned, to his shock and horror, that the wife he thought he’d lost in a car accident is actually alive and working at Lumon—she’s the wellness counselor, Ms. Casey (Dichen Lachman), who he had met with repeatedly during season one.

The big reveal in Severance season one was that the Lumon employees who toiled in the office actually never left—the people who worked there with Mark, including Helly (Britt Lower), Irving (John Turturro), and Dylan (Zach Cherry), had their home lives and work lives completely severed via a very bizarre, clearly NSFW procedure. The new trailer reveals that Mark’s return to the Lumon office finds new faces at the desks that used to be occupied by Helly, Irving, and Dylan—”Who are you people?” he asks. The one familiar face is his manager Milchick (Tramell Tillman) who is there to welcome him back with some supremely creepy balloons.

Joining the aforementioned cast from season one are Patricia Arquette, Christopher Walken, Jen Tullock, and Michael Chernus. Newcomers include Gwendoline Christie, Alia Shawkat, Bob Balaban, Merritt Wever, Robby Benson, Stefano Carannante, John Noble, Ólafur Darri and Sarah Bock.

The wait for season two has been long, especially considering it ended on such a delicious cliffhanger. The talent involved in Severance, including Ben Still as a producer and director, means that the wait will almost certainly be worth it. Check out the trailer for season 2, which arrives on Apple TV+ on January 17.
