‘Silo’ Series Preview: Trailer, Plot, Cast and Premiere Date

“What if everything you know to be true was one big lie?” That’s the big question posed in the teaser trailer for Apple TV+’s Silo. The 10-episode series is based on Hugh Howey’s bestselling dystopian novels, and the trailer sets up a world in which humans only exist inside of an underground silo.

Rebecca Ferguson (Dune), Common (The Chi), Harriet Walter (Succession), Chinaza Uche (Dickinson), Avi Nash (The Walking Dead), David Oyelowo (Selma), Rashida Jones (Parks and Recreation), and Oscar winner Tim Robbins (Mystic River) star in the sci-fi thriller debuting on Friday, May 5, 2023. The first two episodes arrive on May 5th followed by a new episode each Friday. The season final’s set for June 30.

Emmy nominee Graham Yost (Band of Brothers, Justified) created the series and serves as showrunner. Hugh Howey, Oscar nominee Morten Tyldum (The Imitation Game), Rebecca Ferguson, Nina Jack, Fred Golan, Rémi Aubuchon, and Ingrid Escajeda executive produce, with Tyldum directing the first three episodes.

Apple TV+ released the following synopsis of Silo:

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. 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.
