Tramell Tillman Jokes About Stephen Colbert Being a ‘Pain in the Ass’ During Severance Set Visit

Tramell Tillman in "Severance,"

Stephen Colbert’s trip to the Severance set was an experience to remember—especially for cast member Tramell Tillman.

Three years after visiting the Apple TV+ show for a Late Show with Stephen Colbert segment, the talk show host, 60, and Tillman, 39, reflected on the moment during a recent episode of The Late Show.

Colbert called the visit “an amazing treat,” likening it to stepping into a fantasy world. “That’s like me going to Middle Earth,” he said excitedly, prompting Tillman—who plays Seth Milchick—to ask, “When are you coming back?”

“Anytime you want, man,” Colbert quipped. “I didn’t know I was playing coy about it.”

The late-night host then jokingly asked whether his presence had been disruptive. “Did you have time for that, or was it a pain in the ass?”

Without hesitation, Tillman responded with a grin, “You were a pain in the ass.”

The exchange led into a clip from Colbert’s 2022 Severance skit, where he joined Tillman’s character in a hilarious “musical dance experience.”

“I think my favorite part is when you were backing your ass up on me,” Tillman joked after the footage played.

Colbert, not missing a beat, responded, “Back it up like a Tonka truck. That’s what I do.”

Severance Returns After a Long Wait

Following its critically acclaimed first season in 2022, Severance finally returned for season 2 in January 2025, delayed due to the 2023 Hollywood strikes.

This season, Tillman’s character, Milchick, transitions from a supervisor on Lumon Industries’ severed floor to the floor manager, working closely with Harmony Cobel (Patricia Arquette).

To prepare for his expanded role, Tillman told PEOPLE he rewatched season 1 and revisited the scripts. “Having conversations with [creator] Dan [Erickson] and [director] Ben [Stiller] about Milchick’s journey was really helpful,” he shared.

New episodes of Severance season 2 premiere Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET on Apple TV+.
