Ben Stiller reveals his dream Severance project and it’s not what you’d expect

by

Behind-the-scenes, significant and intriguing developments are happening for Severance Season 3, and it’s possible that this series might evolve into a larger franchise.

Among all shows ever aired on Apple TV, Severance has been the most popular to date. Additionally, it’s one of the top-rated series from 2025 and has already secured its place among the greatest television programs of all times.

The main issue is that the production of Season 2, affected by Hollywood strikes and rumored backstage problems, took almost three years. Although the creators are hoping for a shorter break before Season 3, it remains uncertain when we’ll revisit Lumon again.

It’s not surprising that details about the future of “Severance” remain under wraps by Stiller and his team, yet it’s hinted that the universe of the show could potentially grow larger.

Ben Stiller wants a Severance video game

Recently, Stiller and Adam Scott discussed with Variety the potential for Severance spin-offs and exploring different platforms for the show’s continuation.

Stiller expressed his wish for a “Severance” video game, and Scott concurred, stating that it seems fitting.

The query arises: In what form might a Severance game materialize? As fans have already developed Macrodata Refinement simulators, that path seems improbable. A possible alternative could be an eerie first-person experience, where you assume the role of an employee at a different Lumon branch, compelled to traverse the isolated floor and devise a means of escape (with potential influence from The Stanley Parable).

Or, maybe, it’d be in the vein of Heavy Rain – and an adaptation of the Lexington Letter.

While a Severance video game might not materialize, Ben Stiller hinted at two intriguing concepts they’ve been discussing internally as potential spin-offs, but he’s keeping the details under wraps for now.

He informed the media outlet that these things are still in their early stages or development, as he tends to be secretive in his communications.

Currently, we’re in a position where we merely need to be patient for further updates regarding Season 3. In the interim, feel free to explore our compilation of shows similar to Severance, and discover what other exciting series are set to air this year with TopMob’s 2025 TV Calendar.
