The waffle party almost had an unexpected guest. Ben Stiller, who executive produces and directs many episodes of the Emmy-winning Apple TV+ drama “Severance,” has revealed that he invited former President Barack Obama to come on the show.
Keanu Reeves has an uncredited voice role in “Severance,” narrating Lumon’s puppet propaganda video the innies watch in the first episode of Season 2. But the part was originally offered to someone else.
Ben Stiller recounted on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' how he approached former President Barack Obama for a voice role in 'Severance' Season 2 via email. Obama, a fan of the show, declined due to scheduling conflicts.
Ben Stiller personally invited Barack Obama to voice a role in Severance Season 2, but he politely declined due to a busy schedule. Instead, Keanu Reeves took the role, delivering a warm but unsettling narration.
