Exclusive: Silo Interviews with Rebecca Ferguson, Common, Harriet Walter, Chinaza Uche, Avi Nash & producers
Now playing on Apple TV+ is Silo, the 10-episode season created by Emmy-nominated screenwriter Graham Yost (“Band of Brothers,” “Justified”), who also serves as showrunner. The series premiered on Friday, May 5, 2023 with the first two episodes, followed by one new episode weekly, every Friday through June 30, 2023 on Apple TV+.
Silo is the story of the last ten thousand people on earth, their mile-deep home protecting them from the toxic and deadly world outside. However, no one knows when or why the silo was built and any who try to find out face fatal consequences. Rebecca Ferguson stars as Juliette, an engineer, who seeks answers about a loved one's murder and tumbles onto a mystery that goes far deeper than she could have ever imagined, leading her to discover that if the lies don't kill you, the truth will.
The ensemble cast starring alongside Ferguson includes Academy Award-winner Tim Robbins, Common, Harriet Walter, Chinaza Uche, Avi Nash, David Oyelowo and Rashida Jones.
Jones is Allison, the wife of Holston who works in IT in the Silo. She becomes suspicious of the Silo's true history and how it is governed. Oyelowo plays Holston, the husband of Allison and the Sheriff of the Silo. Common is Sims, head of judicial security. Walter will be playing Martha Walker, a veteran engineer working in Mechanical. Nash portrays Lukas Kyle, an IT expert and astronomer
“Silo” is produced for Apple TV+ by AMC Studios and based on the novels by Hugh Howey. The series is created by Yost, and Academy Award-nominee Morten Tyldum (“Defending Jacob,” “The Imitation Game”) directs the first three episodes. Yost and Howey along with Tyldum, Ferguson, Nina Jack, Remi Aubuchon, Fred Golan and Ingrid Escajeda serve as executive producers.
