Keanu Reeves wasn't credited, but he could be heard voicing the Lumon building, and viewers were thrilled with one writing: "Keanu Reeves voicing the Lumon building! This was a cinematic masterpiece." Carefully structured, the story builds a surreal tension around employees in Lumon Industries, allowing the cameo to enrich the bizarrely corporate atmosphere with Reeves’s iconic voice, adding a layer of allure for the audience.
The series follows Mark Scout, an employee at biotechnology company Lumon Industries who grows suspicious of the organisation's cult-like running and severance programme, which separates its employees into 'Innies' and 'Outies'. This thematic exploration of identity fragmentation gives audiences a darkly humorous yet disturbing look at work-life balance and personal identity, encouraging viewers to reflect on the implications of their own work environments.
In the episodes that follow, their connection at work blossoms, as they make excuses to cross departments to steal moments with each other. Their sweet interactions led to the majority of Severance viewers demanding for them to become official, questioning whether they would end up together. This romantic tension among employees adds depth to the narrative, showcasing not just the absurdity of their corporate lives but also the human need for connection.
