Fans of Severance, the hit Apple TV+ thriller, will soon have the chance to own the series on Blu-ray. Season 1, which captivated viewers with its unique and suspenseful storyline, is set for release on December 17. The Blu-ray is available for pre-order on Amazon for $42.88, with delivery expected just in time for the holidays.
A Rare Move for Apple TV+ Shows
Apple TV+ rarely offers its original shows on Blu-ray, making this release special for collectors. Apple typically commissions other production companies for its shows, which often retain rights to physical media. In this case, Fifth Season, a co-producer of Severance, is handling the Blu-ray release. This makes Severance one of the few Apple TV+ titles available in physical format.
Other Apple TV+ shows, like For All Mankind and The Morning Show, have also had Blu-ray releases. However, such releases are uncommon, as Apple focuses on streaming through its platform. The Blu-ray release of Severance gives fans a tangible way to enjoy the show, although no additional content has been confirmed yet.
Anticipation for Season 2
The timing of the Blu-ray release aligns with growing excitement for the show’s second season, expected in early 2025. Despite this anticipation, Severance Season 2 has faced delays due to the writers’ strike and reported creative differences. These setbacks have pushed back the production, leaving fans eagerly awaiting new episodes.
Since its debut, Severance has gained a loyal following, becoming a mainstream success. The series follows employees of Lumon Industries who undergo a procedure that separates work memories from personal ones. This unique blend of sci-fi and suspense has made it a standout in Apple’s lineup.
Pre-order Details
Those interested in pre-ordering can secure a copy on Amazon, with an estimated delivery date of December 23. The Blu-ray release offers fans a new way to experience Severance and marks Apple’s expansion beyond streaming. While details of any bonus content are unclear, the physical release is likely to appeal to collectors and fans alike.
As Severance returns to screens and shelves, viewers can continue exploring the eerie world of Lumon Industries. This Blu-ray release reminds fans of the show’s impact and builds anticipation for its second season.
