Today I’m happy to share something special: my first fan-made song inspired by the series Severance.
The song “You and I” is dedicated to Helly and Mark S. – about love, finding meaning and connection in a world of silence, endless hallways, and closed doors.
The cover features a beautiful photo shared by Ben Stiller on X – thank you, Ben, for this amazing gift to the fan community ❤️.

Ben Stiller sits down with 'Severance' co-stars Adam Scott and Britt Lower to talk about the type of movies he would like to direct in the future.
By Dorothea
Ben Stiller is one of the most recognizable comedic figures of the 21st century. But his contribution to film goes far beyond funny performances. As an actor, director, and producer, Stiller has shown that comedy can be smart, bold, and emotionally resonant.
In many of his films, Ben Stiller plays characters who are ordinary, slightly awkward, and full of anxiety, but also deeply relatable. From Greg Focker in Meet the Parents to the introspective title role in Greenberg, he helped audiences laugh not just at jokes but at the very real, uncomfortable situations of everyday life.
Ben Stiller created a specific type of comedy hero: someone who is not always funny by nature, but someone in whom each of us can find ourselves.
As a director, Stiller has proven he can deliver comedy with depth and style. His directorial debut:
He continued to expand this vision in:
🎬 Zoolander – a sharp and hilarious parody of the fashion industry
🎬 Tropic Thunder – a bold satire of Hollywood itself
🎬 The Secret Life of Walter Mitty – a visually stunning and heartfelt tale about dreaming big
🎬 Severance – a cerebral and unsettling series about corporate life and personal identity,
show that comedy in his performance can be intelligent and moving, not just funny.
Severance has received huge acclaim from critics and viewers. The first season received 97% positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, and the second season continued this trend. The series became one of the most popular titles in the history of Apple TV+, breaking viewership records and attracting new subscribers.
Fans of the show have been involved in creating their own interpretations of the plot, analyses, and fan videos that have gained popularity on social media, a testament to the profound impact Severance has had on viewers and internet culture.
Behind the scenes, Ben Stiller supports new voices. Through his company Red Hour Films, he has produced many films and TV shows, helping to launch or elevate the careers of talents like Jack Black, Owen Wilson, Kristen Wiig, and Adam Scott.
Ben Stiller made comedy more real, personal, and creative in the 21st century. He showed that laughter could be combined with reflection, that comedy could be an art form—just as important as drama or thriller.
Importantly, Ben Stiller didn’t follow trends so much as set them. Back in the ’90s, his The Ben Stiller Show revolutionized television humor, and later films like Zoolander and Tropic Thunder broke new ground in pop-culture satire. In an era when many comedies relied on simple gags, Ben Stiller created work that combined irony, intelligence, and emotion.
Ben Stiller hasn’t said his last word. He’s still developing new projects — films, series, and even returns to iconic roles. With each successive step he proves that comedy can be an art form, and he is one of its most important creators of our time.
