Severance made a splash because it didn’t look like any other sci-fi show. However, a key part of what made Severance what it is today won’t be present in the upcoming Season 3. But in an interview with the Los Angeles Times, he revealed he’ll take a step back from Severance in the upcoming third season. Instead of directing more episodes of the series, Stiller will be focusing on directing a feature film about a downed airman in occupied France who gets involved with the French Resistance. Apple TV+Stiller’s absence from Severance Season 3 will be an adjustment for the series, but it will allow space for a new crop of directors.
