The Severance cast are back at Lumon’s newest location, Grand Central Terminal

Lumon Industries is unveiling a fresh site in the run-up to Severance Season 2 – a secretive temporary establishment in New York City.

In the world of Apple TV+’s popular show Severance, the characters residing within Lumon Industries, such as Mark S., Helly R., Dylan G., and Irving B., are essentially perpetually at work since they remain conscious only inside Lumon’s premises. Throughout Seasons 1 and 2, these key figures have been grappling with a succession of enigmas, like “What exactly is Lumon up to?” and “What became of Ms. Casey?

Apple TV+ established a temporary installation at New York City’s iconic Grand Central Terminal to mark the approaching premiere of Season 2, however, this interactive setup held a delightful twist for devoted viewers of the series.

The core Severance cast showed up for work at Grand Central Terminal

At Grand Central Terminal, Apple TV+ constructed a structure resembling a glass cube, complete with desks reminiscent of Lumon Industries’ workspace, as seen on the Macrodata Refinement floor. Initially, the computers were manned by actors in business attire, mimicking the activities that employees at Lumon Industries might perform. (To clarify, Macrodata Refinement is a setting or work environment depicted in the series.)

Grand Central right now. #Severance

As a devoted fan, I was taken aback when none other than Ben Stiller, the director himself, along with key cast members Adam Scott (Mark), Zach Cherry (Dylan), and Britt Lower (Helly) unexpectedly dropped by our pop-up location. They rolled up their sleeves and dived right into some unanticipated metadata tweaking. The atmosphere was electric as they collaborated, shared laughter, and occasionally paused for snapshots with fans like me.
