Warning : There are pamperer before for the Severance season 2 finale .
Ben Stiller explain the significance of the freeze - frame and the color red at the terminal of theSeveranceseason 2 finale . The installment conclude with a freeze - framing of Mark ( Adam Scott ) and Helly ( Britt Lower ) running down a Lumon hallway highlighted in red . This occurs afterMark ’s innie chooses to go with Helly alternatively of his outie ’s wife , Gemma ( Dichen Lachman ) . Apple TV+ has already renewedSeveranceseason 3 , ensuring that the fallout of this decisiveness will be search , and that the chronicle of Mark , Helly , and Gemma will uphold .
For me , that image was just in my headland from the outset — when we said , OK , we ’re going to go this far and this is where we ’re going to take it . You do n’t see frost - frames at the end of movies that often these days , but it used to be done a lot more . It ’s just kind of this second in clip where you ’re like , “ Oh , wow , this is the end of the movie , but it ’s going to keep going . We just do n’t have it off where it ’s go to go . ” You marinade in this moment . It reminded me of movie that I watched growing up . This dull soar in on the freeze - skeleton prompt me of ’ 70s movies a little bit .
We actually — we shoot this show digitally , but we transfer that last barb to shoot and then re - transferred it because we wanted to have the grain to whizz along in on . So it feel like a motion picture that would ’ve been shoot on film where they would ’ve had an optical printer that would ’ve zoomed in on it . And it goes to bolshy , which we have n’t really gone to before . I think it ’s kind of signaling , “ Hey , we ’re go into a different tone here now . We are going into a different reality for these people . "
What This Means For Severance
Stiller ’s explanation adds further meaning toSeveranceseason 2 ’s endingand tease how season 3 will be drastically different from the story that preceded it . Mark ’s innie choosing Helly over Gemma provides a authoritative stopping point to one of the show ’s principal questionsand conflicts , and makes for a satisfying space to end season 2 . At the same time , the determination leads to countless more questions and ethical dilemmas that require more geographic expedition . A halt - material body is the stark elbow room to communicate this moment being both an ending and beginning point in the overarching story .
The true intent of Macrodata Refinement ’s job and the meaning behind the identification number bunch are finally revealed in Severance ’s season 2 finale .
As for the semblance red , it communicates how different the next season will be . Despite the event ofSeveranceseason 1 ’s ending , the series was still able to return to the status quo in season 2 as Mark , Helly , Irving ( John Turturro ) , and Dylan ( Zach Cherry ) were gradually all brought back to preserve their work in the MDR Department . The event in theSeveranceseason 2 finale make a replication to the status quo inconceivable , though , mean that time of year 3 will look altogether dissimilar from what the character and hearing are used to experiencing .
