That news alongside <em>Severance<\/em> season 3 progress should delight fans of the dystopian workplace drama as much as any &#8220;overtime contingency&#8221; could.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><em>Severance<\/em> season 3 on the way, plus 2 possible spinoffs and merchandise<\/h2>\n<p>Series director Stiller confirmed <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2025\/tv\/news\/ben-stiller-severance-season-3-spinoffs-cut-characters-1236409897\/\" data-lasso-id=\"1641772677\">two specific spinoff concepts<\/a> are currently in early stages of development, according to an interview he and Scott did with <em>Variety<\/em>. While details remain confidential, these developments signal Apple TV+&#8217;s commitment to building a larger franchise around the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/news\/severance-ratings\" data-lasso-id=\"1641772678\">hit show<\/a>\u2019s unique premise as it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/news\/apple-tv-renewed-severance-for-a-third-season\" data-lasso-id=\"1641772679\">heads into season three<\/a>\u00a0following <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/reviews\/severance-season-2-episode-10-recap\" data-lasso-id=\"1641772680\">season two&#8217;s thrilling finale<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Just to briefly recap, Creepy Lumon Industries pushes a brain implant procedure called Severance &#8212; which separates employees&#8217; consciousness of work (&#8220;innie&#8221;) and real life (&#8220;outie&#8221;) &#8212; as a work\/life balance solution, to disastrous effect. &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/reviews\/severance-season-2-episode-2-recap\" data-lasso-id=\"1641772684\">Overtime contingency<\/a>,&#8221; by the way, refers to the mechanism rebellious innies used to briefly escape Lumon at the end of season one.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We\u2019re looking at a couple of different ideas,&#8221; Stiller revealed about spinoffs in the interview. Asked what stage of development they&#8217;re in and whether Apple has signed off, he said only, &#8220;they are nascent.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Most likely, the spinoffs will explore different aspects of the show\u2019s distinctive world. They may delve deeper into the mysterious Lumon Industries or explore other characters within the universe. Stiller also mentioned how he pondered acting in the series early in season one, perhaps as a doctor, but scrapped the idea.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the writing process for <em>Severance<\/em> season 3 continues. Stiller said he flies to Los Angeles every 10 days for collaboration with the creative team. This hands-on approach seems to underscore the importance of maintaining the show\u2019s quality as it expands into a broader franchise.<\/p>\n<h3>Upcoming <em>Severance<\/em> merchandise featuring Lumon-themed products<\/h3>\n<p>Plans for official <em>Severance<\/em> merchandise include Lumon-themed keyboards and perhaps other show-specific collector\u2019s items. Stiller emphasized that any products would be &#8220;bespoke and specific to the show,&#8221; suggesting a focus on quality over quantity.<\/p>\n<p>Fans can look forward to Lumon merchandise that will be carefully designed to reflect the show\u2019s distinctive aesthetic and themes. These items should appeal to the show\u2019s dedicated fanbase. It embraces the series\u2019 unique visual style and corporate dystopian setting.<\/p>\n<h3>Potential video game<\/h3>\n<p>Stiller expressed interest in developing a <em>Severance<\/em> video game as part of the franchise\u2019s expansion into interactive media. While still in the conceptual phase, this potential adaptation could allow fans to experience the show\u2019s mind-bending premise in more of a firsthand way.<\/p>\n<p>The gaming concept aligns with Apple\u2019s broader strategy of creating multimedia franchises around its most successful properties. <em>Severance<\/em> could follow in the footsteps of successful transmedia franchises elsewhere, like the <em>Star Wars<\/em> universe. Some transmedia empires cover books, movies, games and more.<\/p>\n<h3>The show&#8217;s cultural impact<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"29\" aria-labelledby=\"figcaption_29\" class=\"wp-caption post-body-image alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/040525_Severance_Fan_Event_Big_Image_05_big_image_post.jpg.slideshow_large.jpg\" data-lasso-id=\"1641772681\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-895882\" title=\"040525_Severance_Fan_Event_Big_Image_05_big_image_post.jpg.slideshow_large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/040525_Severance_Fan_Event_Big_Image_05_big_image_post.jpg.slideshow_large-1440x811.jpg\" alt=\"Severance event - MDR cubicles\" width=\"780\" height=\"439\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/040525_Severance_Fan_Event_Big_Image_05_big_image_post.jpg.slideshow_large-1440x811.jpg.webp 1440w, https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/040525_Severance_Fan_Event_Big_Image_05_big_image_post.jpg.slideshow_large-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/040525_Severance_Fan_Event_Big_Image_05_big_image_post.jpg.slideshow_large-768x433@2x.jpg.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/040525_Severance_Fan_Event_Big_Image_05_big_image_post.jpg.slideshow_large-350x197.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/040525_Severance_Fan_Event_Big_Image_05_big_image_post.jpg.slideshow_large-768x433.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/040525_Severance_Fan_Event_Big_Image_05_big_image_post.jpg.slideshow_large-1020x575.jpg.webp 1020w, https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/040525_Severance_Fan_Event_Big_Image_05_big_image_post.jpg.slideshow_large.jpg.webp 1960w, https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/040525_Severance_Fan_Event_Big_Image_05_big_image_post.jpg.slideshow_large-400x225@2x.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"figcaption_29\" class=\"wp-caption-text\" style=\"border-color: #2470a3;\">On exhibit at a fan event: the Macrodata Refinement team cubicles with Lumon terminals.<br \/><span style=\"font-style:italic;font-size:11px\">Photo: Apple TV+<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>With a 96% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes, the <em>Severance<\/em> critical reception positions it among the most acclaimed streaming shows of recent years.

Apple TV+&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cultofmac.com\/news\/severance-season-2-promos\" data-lasso-id=\"1641772682\">promotional stunts for the show<\/a> make headlines.<\/p>\n<p>Adam Scott\u2019s Severance performance has earned critical acclaim, with the actor noting how the role feels like a career milestone.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For 25 years, I had been marching my way through the sludge to get to a place where maybe I could get a role like this. It feels like a culmination for me,&#8221; Scott told <em>Variety<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The actor also commented on the show\u2019s growing recognition dovetailing with his own.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s certainly different walking down the street,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Every 10 steps, someone has to talk about the show.

The <em>Severance<\/em> franchise expansion strategy appears to follow similar paths to other successful Apple TV+ properties like <em>Monarch: Legacy of Monsters<\/em> and <em>For All Mankind<\/em>, both of which have spawned spinoffs.<\/p>\n<p>For fans eagerly awaiting more content from this distinctive universe, the confirmation of likely spinoffs, interesting merchandise and potential
