11. Canada: Newfoundland Takes the Spotlight in Severance Season 2

Season 2 of Severance transports viewers to the stunning coastal landscapes of Newfoundland and Labrador, where the towns of Bonavista and Trinity Bay North stand in for the fictional Salt’s Neck, Harmony Cobel’s mysterious hometown. The region’s rugged cliffs, icy waters, and remote charm add an eerie yet breathtaking backdrop to the show’s growing mystery. A repurposed fish plant serves as the abandoned Lumon ether factory, further immersing audiences in the unsettling world of Severance. Patricia Arquette praised Newfoundland as a "magical" place that feels frozen in time, while director Ben Stiller lauded its raw beauty, comparing it to Iceland and Greenland. Meanwhile, the iconic Bell Labs Holmdel Complex in New Jersey continues to represent Lumon’s imposing corporate headquarters. The contrast between Newfoundland’s wild landscapes and Lumon’s cold, sterile offices deepens the show’s themes of control and isolation, making Season 2 even more immersive and visually striking.
