The Lumon Industries pop-up event at New York City’s iconic Grand Central Terminal has sparked intrigue and laughter among fans of Apple TV+'s hit series, *Severance*.

Actor Adam Scott, who portrays the enigmatic Mark S., shared his humorous perspective about this unusual promotional adventure during a recent appearance on *The Late Show with Stephen Colbert*.

Reflecting on the experience held on January 15, Scott seemed genuinely amused by the irony of recreating the sterile and dystopian work atmosphere that *Severance* critiques.

"This was super fun," he remarked, contrasting the lively pop-up with the eerie ambiance of the show, where employees undergo a radical procedure to separate their work and personal identities.

As excitement builds for the show's long-awaited second season—nearly three years after its suspenseful finale—Scott and his co-stars,

including Patricia Arquette and Britt Lower, transformed the austere green office setting from the screen into a fascinating real-life spectacle. Directed by the talented Ben Stiller, the event attracted curious onlookers who took photos and videos, engaging with the commentary on contemporary work life and surveillance themes.

Scott's recounting of the experience included a humorous tidbit: "We were in there for 3 hours… Yes, we were just in there working, and none of us peed—for 3 hours!"

The quirky nature of their performance as they hunched over desks doing simulated office tasks seemed to entertain the gathered crowd, who witnessed this bizarre yet captivating marketing strategy.

Interestingly, Scott's computer malfunctioned during the recreation, yet he humorously persevered, staying in character while troubleshooting.

The actor noted that even his teenage children, who usually show little interest in his projects, were eager for insights about the show's return amidst the lengthy hiatus.

Scott's behind-the-scenes stories included a sneak peek into Season 2, particularly his character's thrilling dash down Lumon's stark, white hallways.

He cheekily channeled Tom Cruise during the scene, saying, "He’s the best runner in the world," and jokingly detailing the physical challenge of running in a suit and dress shoes.

Interestingly, filming that sequence spanned an impressive five months, culminating in a joyful wrap party to celebrate the achievement.

*Severance* Season 2 premiered on January 17 to rave reviews, delving deeper into the lives of the Lumon employees who have voluntarily chosen to undergo the controversial procedure to disconnect their personal and professional lives.

With such exciting developments on the horizon, fans can only imagine what twists await in the upcoming episodes.
