'The executive from Apple TV Plus reveals disheartening news about the third season of the series "Severance"'
Apple TV+ has yet to announce a confirmed start date for the production of "Severance" season 3, despite earlier suggestions that the show was progressing quickly. Matt Cherniss, the head of programming at Apple TV+, has confirmed that production has not yet begun and they have not set an official start date, though they are working towards it[1][3][4].
Cherniss expressed optimism about the current circumstances and assured fans that the creative team is working "as quickly as they can" to deliver a season that meets expectations. However, he acknowledged that producing a season that meets expectations takes time[1][3]. Similarly, executive producer Ben Stiller has hinted that announcements about Season 3's plans are forthcoming[1].
Given the time needed for scripting, filming, editing, and marketing, the earliest plausible release for Season 3 is likely to be fall 2026 or early 2027[2].
Malcolm, a well-known reviewer who has been with Tom's Guide since 2022, has been covering the latest in streaming shows and movies since 2023. In a recent article, he shared his takeaways from his interview with the cast of "Foundation" season 3[5].
Meanwhile, Malcolm has expressed concerns about "The Sandman" season 2 but was pleasantly surprised by the first episode[6]. He also shared his 10 biggest takeaways for the upcoming season of "Foundation"[5].
There seems to be some discrepancy between the statements made by Cherniss and those made by Stiller about the production timeline for "Severance" season 3. While Stiller previously stated that the show was coming "as fast as possible," he did not suggest that it would be here any time soon[7].
Cherniss expressed a desire to avoid a long wait between seasons 2 and 3 of "Severance," stating, "No one wants it to be another three-year gap"[3]. However, with no confirmed start date for production, fans may have to wait a while longer for the return of their favourite show.

Cherniss, in a recent interview, emphasized that the production team for "Severance" season 3 is making every effort to deliver a quality show as quickly as possible, suggesting a potential interest in timely entertainment offerings on Apple TV+. However, the current state of movie and TV productions, which include scripting, filming, editing, and marketing phases, might push the earliest plausible release for the show towards fall 2026 or early 2027.
