Rebecca Ferguson’s Juliette Nichols is back with a vengeance, and she’s got secrets to unravel that could shatter everything. Apple TV+ has just dropped the season two trailer of Silo, and it seems that the mysterious mile-deep sanctuary isn’t as safe—or as solitary—as everyone hoped.
The first season left us on a cliffhanger, as the last 10,000 people on Earth clung to survival inside their silo, an underground fortress shielding them from the desolate wasteland above. But it turns out, the supposed safety is built on secrets, and seeking answers comes with a deadly price. Season two picks up right where it left off: Juliette, fresh from her foray into the toxic world outside, returns with some grim news—and her mission is to make sure everyone knows the truth.
The trailer shows Juliette risking everything to expose lies about their world’s origins—lies that could turn their entire underground society against Bernard Holland (Tim Robbins), the head of IT and the gatekeeper of their dystopian status quo. Holland, meanwhile, is determined to keep the facade intact. “I’m not afraid of the rebellion,” he confesses. “I’m more afraid of what she saw.” It’s clear that whatever Juliette knows, it’s enough to shake even the powerful leader who’s been weaving a web of deception.
Juliette’s journey back to the silo is a battle for truth in a world where speaking out is the ultimate crime. As she fights to survive above ground, she learns the silo isn’t the only one—that there are others out there, nestled in what everyone believed was an uninhabitable wasteland. This revelation ties directly to why she left in the first place: to find answers about a loved one’s mysterious death. What started as a personal quest quickly evolves into a fight that could reshape humanity’s understanding of the world.
The second season brings back an ensemble cast featuring Common and Harriet Walter, with Steve Zahn joining the mix. The new 10-episode season is set to launch globally on Apple TV+ starting November 15, with weekly releases until January 17, 2025.
Silo is produced by Apple Studios, with an impressive lineup of executive producers including Graham Yost, Michael Dinner, Nina Jack, Joanna Thapa, Ferguson herself, and others. If season one had you on edge, season two looks ready to blow the lid—or hatch—off entirely.
