The return of the acclaimed drama, airing on Apple TV Plus from Friday January 17, focuses once again on Mark ( Parks and Recreation's Adam Scott) who, like many employees at Lumon, has chosen to have his work life surgically severed from his home life.

The hit Apple TV+ series returns Friday with fewer laughs as it tries unravel the mystery of what's happening to its characters.

Adam Scott heads up the cast of ‘Severance’ season 2 as Mark Scout, the Lumon employee who has the severance procedure following the loss of his wife. He’s seen here at the premiere of “Hot Tub Time Machine 2” on February 18, 2015 in Westwood, California. He previously starred in ‘Krampus,’ ‘The Overnight,’ and ‘Parks & Recreation,’ among others.
