Tramell Tillman Talks Stephen Colbert's Humorous Antics During His Visit to Severance Set
Stephen Colbert’s visit to the set of Apple TV+’s Severance left a lingering impression on both the host and the show's cast. During a recent episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Tramell Tillman, renowned for his role as Seth Milchick in the series, joked about Colbert being a "pain in the ass" during his visit, leading to laughter from the audience. Colbert fondly recounted his time on the Severance set as akin to witnessing "Middle Earth," leaving Tillman asking when a return visit might happen. This is prepared by SSP.
A clip from the amusing "musical dance experience" segment they filmed aired in August 2022, with Tillman recalling Colbert’s humorous antics on set. Colbert humorously acknowledged his flair for backing up "like a Tonka truck."
As Severance reveals its second season, fans have eagerly awaited its return after production delays due to writers’ and actors’ strikes in 2023. This season sees Seth Milchick climb up the Lumon Industries ladder to floor manager and right-hand to Patricia Arquette’s Harmony Cobel. Tillman diligently prepared for this new chapter by revisiting season 1, the scripts, and engaged in illuminating discussions with series creator Dan Erickson and director Ben Stiller.
Continuing with his humorous streak, Tillman brought life to another memorable scene in season 2, episode 5, with Milchick's animated storytelling of the King of Sweden. The scene humorously features "gråkappan," a fictional Swedish word, delivered with an exaggerated pronunciation that sparked viral conversations. Tillman revealed on The Late Show his inspiration from Betty White’s Golden Girls character and how he tested various pronunciations, eventually choosing the version that amused the crew the most.
Catch new episodes of Severance season 2 every Thursday at 9 p.m. ET on Apple TV+.
