Rebecca Ferguson Teases "Dark" and "Bonkers" SILO Season 2; At Least Four Seasons Planned
Silo star Rebecca Ferguson is teasing the upcoming second season of the Apple TV Plus show, and if you liked what Season 1 had to offer, this next season is going to take things to another level.
During an interview with The Wrap, she said: "Season 2 is dark. It's a bonkers exciting season. It is huge, man."
She also revealed that she's contracted to appear in four seasons, and she knows the ultimate ending of the series. However, the series has yet to be officially renewed for Season 3.
Ferguson went on to say: "We're now looking at green-lighting seasons 3 and 4. And I think we would film them maybe together, and that would be the end.”
She added: “I believe that the show has an ending, and I know when that is. To be honest, I don't think it's a secret."
Hugh Howey, the author of the series, previously shared his thoughts on Season 2 saying: "I've seen season two and it's one of the best things I've ever seen."
The series is based on Howey’s trilogy of dystopian novels, and it tells 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.”
After its sheriff breaks a cardinal rule and residents die mysteriously, engineer Juliette “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. She starts to uncover shocking secrets and the truth about the silo.”
When previously talking about Season 2, Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+ said in a statement: “It has been enormously fulfilling to see the engrossing, atmospheric and beautifully crafted sci-fi epic Silo quickly become Apple’s number one drama series.”
He added: “As audiences around the world have become gripped by the mysteries and conspiracies buried within this fascinating subterranean world, viewership only continues to climb, and we are so excited for more secrets of the silo to be revealed in season two.”
The series was created and written by Graham Yost (Band of Brothers, Justified), and he shared: “We cannot wait for audiences around the world to immerse themselves in the epic world we have created to bring Hugh Howey’s novels to life.”
He continued: “Apple has believed in our vision from day one and it’s an honor to have the opportunity to dig deeper into this story and peel back the layers to our characters in the Silo.”
Ferguson is joined in the series by a great ensemble cast that includes Common, Harriet Walter, Chinaza Uche, Avi Nash, David Oyelowo, Rashida Jones and Tim Robbins.
Silo Season 2 doesn't have a release date yet.
