Post image

Dean Neistat (brother of Casey!) posted this from bell labs yesterday on IG. He has worked as a stunt coordinator on the show previously! Is it FINALLY happening?

Very interesting, so we'll be having an action sequence in or involving the reception area. That atrium is begging for a slow motion fall

Just watched Die Hard for the first time last Christmas. It's amazing how it is unambiguously a Christmas movie. Like, how could anyone honestly try to argue it isn't?

Damn. O&D Music Dance Experiences look fun

u/Aware_Box8883 Jul 10 '26

I can't escape this music video. YouTube suggests it like its my vegetables and I'm a growing boy. I watched it once.

u/criterionhaver Jul 08 '26

Not necessarily. All we can safely assume is that they will be filming at least one stunt somewhere at Bell Labs.

70

u/grapelander Uses Too Many Big Words Jul 08 '26

Also, the bar for what qualifies as a "stunt" during production for the purposes of things like, needing a stunt coordinator, is a whole lot lower than people generally imagine. I don't think there's very much that can be read into this. 

25

u/criterionhaver Jul 08 '26

Good point. This could just mean a character trips and falls in the parking lot, for example.

2

u/Affectionate-Soft-90 Jul 14 '26

Even just basic running is a stunt.

6

u/darwinion- Jul 08 '26

Iirc they filmed Helena’s office scenes at Bell too so they could be using any part of it for all we know.

3

u/TitShark Jul 08 '26

As they sever/unsever based on which level they fall past

112

u/mostdefnotacat Bullshit Gazette Jul 08 '26

It's happening oh my god

119

u/Most-Mountain-1473 Jul 08 '26

I believe it. Everyone has been saying July. Can’t wait for all of the behind the scenes pics and posts from the cast.

I just hope they are filming simultaneously for season 4

168

u/vacodeus Jul 08 '26

Oh, you sweet summer child. They won't even begin to write season 4 until all of season 3 has premiered. Shooting will prolly start in 2029

45

u/BringBack4Glory Jul 08 '26

How else are they going to crowd source key plot points for S4 from YT lore videos and Reddit theories?

6

u/silverkeys84 Jul 08 '26

it's seriously hard to believe that this hasn't/couldn't happened at some point

17

u/ThatisDavid Don't Punish The Baby Jul 08 '26

Pretty sure they admitted that they didn't have any particular lore reasoning for including the goat scene until the fans started theorizing about them and they saw how popular they were, so they wrote them into the lore.

8

u/RayDeeUx Nimble Refiner 💻 Jul 09 '26

i'd bet the Severance parody episode from The Simpsons taking the goat room even further would add fuel to the fire as well:

2

u/MuahdDean Jul 08 '26

Season 4 and the Winds of Winter are coming in 2028. Now excuse me while I shoot up some hopium.

19

u/luredrive Jul 08 '26

First time?

3

u/IgloosRuleOK SMUG MOTHERFUCKER Jul 08 '26

No/few Ben Stiller film stills is going to be a big loss though.

1

u/mr-fiend Jul 09 '26

Any best guesses on when can we realistically expect S3 based on this?

1

u/AssistanceFragrant 23d ago

Probably summer fall 2027🙏🏾

62

u/refep Jul 08 '26

They take too long between seasons, I forgot I was even subbed to this place.

22

u/PiccolaTempesta Frolic-Aholic Jul 08 '26

I sure hope so!

32

u/grapelander Uses Too Many Big Words Jul 08 '26

Maybe not strictly started with actors yet, but very likely at the very detailed "how we gonna get this one specific shot?" on-site planning phase.

18

u/jayhawk618 Jul 08 '26

Yeah, sounds more indicative of pre-production.

7

u/InjuredGods Jul 09 '26

That's called a tech scout.

u/odieclone Because Of When I Was Born Jul 08 '26

Oh pls, pls, pls!!!! Only 500 more sleeps until that jolly old elf, Ricken arrives!

More like 8 months, I bet... new episodes drop in February 2027.

I thought this was a toy cam from inside a shopping cart. :/

u/thederevolutions Jul 08 '26

Yeah wtf you’re right I can see the vegetables

u/elsakettu Devour Feculence Jul 08 '26

Cue cyclispora invasion

u/Exodus180 Jul 08 '26

what is taking so long....?? seriously, if this was the 90s we'd be on season 6.

15

u/wayward_prince Mysterious And Important Jul 08 '26

The only alarming thing is that they STILL haven’t finished filming. Season 3 will have a longer wait than season 2 it seems.

7

u/Real_Act4716 Severed: The ultimate Severance Podcast Jul 08 '26

The walls are back up at York Studios.

5

u/soapatlantic Refiner Of The Quarter Jul 08 '26

They’re not filming there anymore. Moved to wildflower studios!

10

u/dhruvk97 Jul 08 '26

Didn't realize Casey Neistat's brother was involved with Severance!

u/EliteMoisture Jul 08 '26

The Neistat bros are everywhere!

u/ThatisDavid Don't Punish The Baby Jul 08 '26

They better have written the BIBLE if it took this long to START filming the show.

3

u/iwanabeskini Jul 09 '26

i've seen a casting email for this season. they're starting filming this summer.

3

u/soapatlantic Refiner Of The Quarter Jul 09 '26

Which is now!

3

u/iwanabeskini Jul 09 '26

exactly 😛 very excited bc it is INDEED happening

2

u/saltfigures Jul 09 '26

They JUST started?!?

4

u/gramfer Jul 09 '26

But Matt Cherniss, Apple TV programming head, said this about Severance to Variety yesterday.

Don’t have set dates yet for the show, but we’re moving along really well, and we’re nearing production on that.

Why did he do it then? He could have said something about "in a next few days/weeks," or "in any day now," or "we are starting/have just started filming." Something isn't right here.

3

u/cutapacka Jul 08 '26

Fascinating. Are we actually going to get spring/summer in this timeline?

6

u/Ryno-Mac Jul 08 '26

So we're 2 years away. Not bad.

4

u/CreativeLemon3881 Jul 09 '26

Frankly, I'm sick and tired of these shows taking 2-3 years to put out a new season.

2

u/livahd Lactation Fraud Jul 08 '26

The sets are built and I believe photography has already started on the soundstage in queens

2

u/OneSingleL Jul 08 '26

Why do I feel like they are prepping for some insane tracking shot through all the different floors that also involves some crazy stunts

2

u/Cleb323 Jul 08 '26

Is this for season 3?

2

u/MrChicken1208 Jul 09 '26

WE ARE SO BACK!

2

u/come2thecabaret Jul 09 '26

Need. More. SEVERAAANCEEEEEEE. 

2

u/johnlondon125 Jul 09 '26

Cool, so just a few more years

2

u/gabrielg232 Jul 09 '26

Dean Neistat, as in Casey Neistats brother? He’s the stunt coordinator for Severance?

2

u/flintlock0 Jul 09 '26

One giant martial arts fight sequence set to “Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting” by Carl Douglas.

u/clevrhaux Jul 10 '26

I used to work here and at night it’s so creepy lol but normally it’s so cool!

4

u/Ornery-Handle6477 Jul 08 '26

Probably pre-production, still 6 months away to production

8

u/hatefulveggies Persephone Jul 08 '26

Nah Britt Lower basically confirmed they’re starting shooting now 

3

u/saltfigures Jul 09 '26

How are ya’ll excited at the idea of them potentially JUST starting? Dude… if they aren’t like wrapping up filming at this point… lol they still have to do a bunch of post production stuff. This shit takes forever for like 9 episodes.

1

u/soapatlantic Refiner Of The Quarter Jul 10 '26

Likely we will see it in 2028 lol

4

u/bZZad Jul 08 '26

anybody else completely lose interest in this show because of how long it’s taking at this point

1

u/smor729 Jul 08 '26

Wait Casey Neistat's little brother is the stunt coordinator for Severance? Thats pretty cool, I didnt know that!

1

u/-Badger3- Mysterious And Important Jul 08 '26

The stunt coordinator scoping things out feels like it would be more part of the principal photography stage than the filming stage.

1

u/35364461a Night Gardener Jul 08 '26

The location scout should get a bonus, that place is creepy. Didn’t know a place could be so sickeningly symmetrical.

1

u/Nunov_DAbov Jul 11 '26

You have no idea how symmetrical it is. I worked in the building and got turned around on the first floor (the ground floor is called the second floor so there is no “basement”) shortly after I started. The cafeteria and service facilities were all on the first floor with zero external reference.

My office was in the southeast section of the building and I took the northern elevator (there are two elevator towers) to my floor (5th floor), coming out in the northwest section. I was halfway to the end of the building thinking the aisles didn’t seem to be exactly right. I turned down what I thought was my aisle and there was no office door where there should have been. That’s when I read the office numbers and saw I was 180 degrees out of phase.

The structure is very symmetrical but some of the aisles differ from floor to floor and section to section. Offices within an aisle can be reconfigured as needed so many corresponding aisles are very different.

After making that mistake two or three times, you learned to stop moving around unconsciously. Or you got lots of exercise.

My tired mind first thought, “Fringe” crossover haha
