For the first time ever, Apple TV+ is heading down to San Diego Comic-Con with a huge spotlight on its genre series including Severance, For All Mankind, Mythic Quest, See, Invasion and Foundation.
Apple TV+’s original series panels at San Diego Comic-Con International will include:
Inside Severance with EP and director Ben Stiller, creator and EP Dan Erickson and cast members Adam Scott, Britt Lower, Tramell Tillman, Dichen Lachman and Jen Tullock who’ll share “innie” secrets from season one.
The Endeavor Content series follows Mark Scout (Scott), who leads a team at Lumon Industries, whose employees have undergone a severance procedure, which surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives. This daring experiment in “work-life balance” is called into question as Mark finds himself at the center of an unraveling mystery that will force him to confront the true nature of his work… and of himself.
There will also be a Severance installation at the Hard Rock Hotel whereby attendees can get “severed” as they immerse themselves in the world of Lumon Industries. The experience will take new Lumon employees through their first day on the severed floor where all of their senses will be required if they hope to be reunited with their ‘outtie.’
The Alternate World of For All Mankind with creators and EPs Ronald D. Moore, Matt Wolpert and Ben Nedivi, EP Maril Davis and cast members Joel Kinnaman, Shantel VanSanten, Jodi Balfour, Sonya Walger, Krys Marshall, Cynthy Wu, Casey Johnson, Coral Peña and Wrenn Schmidt who’ll converse about the series’ third season.
Season 3 is currently running on AppleTV, having premiered on June 10 and running through Aug. 12. This season, the Red Planet becomes the new frontier in the Space Race not only for the US and the Soviet Union, but also an unexpected new entrant with a lot to prove and even more at stake. Our characters find themselves going head-to-head as their ambitions for Mars come into conflict and their loyalties are tested, creating a pressure cooker that builds to a climactic conclusion. For All Mankind is produced by Sony Pictures Television.
