The newest trailer for Apple TV Plus’ Severance Season 2 revealed that Mark has three new coworkers at Lumon, greatly surprising fans. Moreover, they wonder about the whereabouts of Helly, Irving, and Dylan, Mark’s colleagues from Season 1. He had formed strong bonds with Helly, Irving, and Dylan, while working with them, making their absence in the Season 2 trailer pretty jarring.
Here is an explanation on Mark’s new coworkers and the possible whereabouts of Helly, Irving, and Dylan in Severance Season 2.
Why does Mark have new Coworkers in Severance Season 2?
Mark has new coworkers in Severance Season 2, as Lumon has hired them to replace Helly, Dylan, and Irving.
Lumon replaced them likely in retaliation for Mark, Helly, and Irving escaping them in their Innie form in the Season 1 finale. Furthermore, they attempted to expose the company’s oppressive work culture.
It is possible that Mark’s new coworkers are not only mere replacements, but also pawns used by Lumon to monitor his actions. They are also hired to see if he tries to rebel against the company and expose them once again.
Where are Mark’s old coworkers Helly, Dylan, and Irving in Severance Season 2?
It is currently unknown where Mark’s old coworkers Helly, Dylan, and Irving are.
However, it is possible that Lumon has assigned each of the three to different parts of the company, separating them from each other and Mark. This is to ensure that the four do not unite and attempt to take down Lumon again.
Another possibility would be the trio being in Lumon’s captivity at an unknown location away from Mark. This is because the company is trying to break their spirits and brainwash them into being mindlessly loyal and obedient.
Severance Season 2 will be premiering on January 17, 2025. Adam Scott, Patricia Arquette, John Turturro, Britt Lower, Zach Cherry, Dichen Lachman, Jen Tullock, Tramell Tillman, Michael Chernus, and Christopher Walken will reprise their roles.
New cast members for Season 2 include Gwendoline Christie, Merritt Weaver, Bob Balaban, Alia Shawkat, Robby Benson, Stefano Carannante, Olafur Darri Olafsson, and John Noble.
